I recently sold my longarm 15 year old for $2500 and that was cheap in this area. I have not been able to use it since 1998 due to health conditions for it was like new condition.
I did realize the $ amount. That is what I told my friend, this was a dream! I couldn't just run out and spend that much on myself knowing that we have 5 kids that are always needing something. I am very excited about it. ;) They didn't mention anything about her having any left over quilt tops. I will ask my friend and see. I know that she said he has a Dutch Doll quilt on his couch that his wife made, she said she'd love to have it but she figures he covers up with it while he watches t.v.
I talked to my friend earlier today and she said that he likes Cracker Barrel......so I will get him one there. She almost argued with me saying I didn't need to do any kind of gift card but I told her I just felt that I should. She understood but said it wasn't necessary, but I think it is. ;)
