4 years ago DH bought me a Janome 6600P that I love, love, love. It's my 2nd Janome - the other is a MC 3000 that is as old as JJ! I try to use it on a regular basis, but since I come home from work tired, it's usually ignored until the weekend. This weekend it also has been left alone as I'm on a mission - which is now completed as JJ is completely basted and ready to quilt tonight. I am going to go say hello to my machine after I catch up here. My goal was to have JJ basted and ready to quilt BEFORE the first frost. It's November 14 & we STILL haven't had a frost. Came close a couple of times, but no frost, yet.
Hapy stitching!

Yes, I'm using a black background. I love the way black makes any color pop right off the block! I buy black by the bolt - use Hobby Lobby's 40% coupons to buy a bolt of Kona cotton black! That's also the way I buy Warm & Natural - by the bolt w/coupon! However, I'm out of batting and I want to try the new Pellon battings that appear very similar to W&N, but quite a bit less. JJ is sandwiched with Thermore. I can't believe how thin it is!
When you come over for coffee and dessert - how about molten lava cake? :)

Beam her up, Scotty! Wouldn't that be a great thing to be able to do?
