JanieW ... go for it! Especially when you are so close to the Rockies! The price is incredible for the quilt kit ... I really like the Tahiti quilt, though I think you would lose the print of the batik with it being chopped into so many squares. That pattern would be a great one for a scrappy stash project.

QNSue ... Yes, need to manage the $ to get the machine that you want. Though fabric $ is a necessity to our habit!

I just started this thread ... and I bet each of you have some worthwhile comments to add!

OK, QuiltE, you talked me into it. It's been ordered so now QNS and I can have a mini quilt-a-long! Anybody else? It'll be fun!

Not going there!!! ...... **whistles a happy tune**


Good for you JanieW ... for taking good care of yourself!
*note* ... the blame goes to QNSue, not moi!!
(just can't have MrJanieW blaming me .................... AGAIN!!!)

QuiltE what beautiful blocks from QNS, very springlike and soft pastels..

Wow you have kept tabs on our sewing machine acquisitions, great job and some great machines to keep us sewing along.

I will take photos today of my unpicking, hope to have it finished today so I can continue with the embroidery.

I need a huge favour from everyone, can you please please stop the links to wonderful quilt shops with gorgeous quilt kits, I am really really struggling not to jump in feet first and purchase the Tahiti kit. Someone please hold me back I have too many projects, come on girls stop being enablers

Oh, come on, Mirabelle; ....live life,celebrate 'cause its short!!! Not a bad price on this one. Separately buying fabric yardage for a quilt, I have spent many more $$$ than this one. Other UFOs will wait; I know mine will. It will be fun!!
An adventure. After this one, I haffa to quit looking...this one came in a newsletter email. Charge!! Go!!!

Great MB QNS that you did for QuiltE. Such great spring like colors!

Lots of new machines in the last year for everyone. I'm not going there until my little ole Brother bites the dust. I just love it for piecing and so light weight to take in our RV. I also love my Baby Lock that I use for quilting. It is nice to have the two machines. I just need to get my self in gear and do some quilting, I won't tell you how many things I have to quilt!

There will be lots of pretty quilts when we get all the blocks together. I have my BB together, but not all quilted yet. Will take pic then when I'm finished. I'm so behind because of the tendonitis in my left wrist, just doesn't seem to want to much better, still wearing a brace because I would use it too much without it on.
