Oh! That's right! I had a friend who had this same problem. I didn't pay attention at the time because I thought I would always be a hand quilter. That was almost 20 years ago. :lol: Old age, arthritis, and lack of time to quilt everything I need to have forced me to learn to machine quilt. I guess the moral is to "Never Say Never." Now that I am learning to machine quilt I will remember this.
