Yes. And I am making one for you! It will be a crazy quilt but I am going to cheat and use my embroidery machine to piece it -- otherwise you wouldn't get it until NEXT May!

Speaking of embroidery machines, I never wanted one. Didn't see the use of them. Then my husband and I stopped by a machine shop on a whim to look at sewing machines. By that time my business was well under way and I was still using a Singer that I bought in Kohl's department store for $79! He ended up buying me a Babylock Sofia 2 and once I started using it for embroidery, I never used it again as a sewing machine! Nonetheless, there is nothing like relaxing with handwork in the evening. I was never one who could just sit and watch TV with my husband without doing something else. I loved piecing hexes. I know many don't like Y seams, but they were heavenly to me!
