June -
I am so impressed by you, and we just met. I really admire you for taking on the challenge of the frame, machine quilting, etc.
I've heard that breaking needles comes from speeding. I will have to remember my Grandmother when I start learning. She allowed me to drive her oldsmobile on dirt roads while vacationing at her cabin. I was 14 at the time.
Feed a little gas now. Now brake a little, now brake a little, Scott!!
Have you finished a quilt yet?
