Having trouble posting my reply... it's just been too long since I posted anything. Here's my 3rd try at posting.
Thank you JanRN and QuitNama for you suggestions. I have only had my machine since mid-April, and between work and extended visiting company I've only had a few days to practice and become familiar with it. My DH has already promised me the extension for my table. My kids and grandkids asked me what rulers, templates etc I want, so I thought I'd ask other more experienced owners for suggestions.
