Safe travels, Terri! It's only 40 degrees here and it's almost noon. Can't complain tho. After an initial cold snap, we have had a very warm winter. We need some cold to kill off some of the bugs in the woods. I'll be glad when I can sit on my porch again, tho.
Janice, which Juki do you have? I use a 2010Q for all of my piecing. It can machine quilt too, just limited on throat space, but it's what I quilted on before I bought the Juki longarm. Straight stitch only, so I keep my old Bernina 830 Record set up too, for the rare times I need zig zag, like joining batting pieces. Juki makes good machines.
I'm starting to feel human again, after being so sick over Christmas. Today I might even sew!
