Now that's really cute! Most of the time! Well, I am beginning to do that once in a while, so maybe I'll get there too.

To do a stack 'n'whack, you find eight repeats of a large colorful print, cut the repeats apart and stack them on top of each other. Then we put pins all over so that each print is exactly over the other ones. Each flower or pattern is in the same place on each layer. Then we cut that into strips and the strips into diamonds. The diamonds are put together in a circle, like a kaleidoscope. They sure are beautiful. It's hard to believe that all these stars came from the same fabric.

Now about my Columbus Sewing Machine: I have a number I found under the shuttle plate, but when I tried to Google that, all I found was sewing machine stores in Columbus Ohio. I had never heard of Columbus sewing machines before. Where should I look to find out something about them and how old mine is?

Thanks in advance for your help.
