I did not touch my machine for almost a year after a "customer" threatened me and stalked me. (police action taken).
Now I am a piece maker(!) and quilter, a student of all things fabric.
Hello, I am Barb, lover of life!
Sorry to hear about the stalking...I've had one of those too, but luckily, he didn't know my name and we've moved several times since then...

I hate when people ask you a favor (such as to make or repair something) and they take you for granted....family can be the worst about that...
