All the proposed dates are good for me. Yes, GrannyJan, we met at A Scarlet Thread on the 4th and had a lovely time with shopping/eating/show&tell and a pineapple ruler presentation. Weren't many of us but I believe all there enjoyed themselves. And Mona figured out my stitch length selector problem on my new machine! Very much appreciated, used the machine to paper-piece the next weekend at a guild sew-in. Thanks again Mona!
