Beautiful kaleidoscopes, Carrie & Mirab. Love the different blocks that magically appear. MrJanRn would have loved that motorcycle one to death, too.
Anne, neat little machine. Have you tried it out yet? I have a question for you about my Viking. All the instructions say DO NOT OIL. But on another QB thread someone posted that you have to oil the bobbin area. Yes or no? I've never done it, take my machine every 3 yrs for its check-up and haven't had a problem. Am I doing something wrong? (Remember, I come from the sewing era when the teacher kept saying "don't touch your knobs" meaning don't touch the thread or bobbin adjustment tension knobs--we always got a laugh out of that). With the Sweet 16 you oil the bobbin race each time you sew but I've never oiled my Viking.
No recipe for your casserole, Anne, hope someone has it. I'd like to try it; I have a frozen ham bone for soup and left over Christmas ham pieces in the freezer and this sounds like a good way to use them.
