I had intended to make a block with a fish I had designed for a quilt I made at the cabin but I just didn't have time. We were right in the middle of making our twice a year move.... to the cabin in the UP and I hadn't even gotten everything unpacked yet. I knew I had to get this finished and sent to Nancy so I picked a paper pieced fish 'cause I could get it done quickly and sent. So I hope you like my block, Glenn. I am so thankful that you are willing to share all your knowledge with those of us that are trying to get our machines looking good again after so many years of neglect. And, I've caught the bug. I am looking everywhere for more machines to add to my meager collection. I don't know why or where I'm going to put them when I find them but I'm bound to saving as many old machines as I can. Of course I'm going to be asking you all for your expert knowledge since I'm such a novice as getting these beauties spiffed up as I learn.
Wow, Jean look at that FW and the cabinet! There are not many of us with that cabinet! I have the card table for the FW, but Geeze, I didn't know anyone on here had the wooden cabinet!

Your fish is really cute, and you did a great job! I don't see how you could have done a nicer fish even if you'd had tons of time!
