joanlizbay, not sure about that younger (72 here) and I'm lacking in the energy part right now but it will come back. Not even sure where I'm going to put that machine but I will make room even if it's in the garage
The lady gave me an awesome price for it that I just can't pass up and if something happens to me my grand daughter and step daughter both quilt so they will have a long arm machine.
QM good luck on your surgery, never a fun thing to go through but you are right "you can do it!" I've come to realize that the trials and tribulations we go through only make us stronger!
