Pretty block Gayle! And you picked one with some tiny pieces to start with, I was afraid to try that with the first one!

Getting so frantic, never received my first book ordered, reordered from amazon, still waiting for that one going to be so far behind, before I even get started. My fabric is cleaned pressed and sorted, and I did find the first block from a friend, but since I have never pp I really had wanted to read the book and have time to go through it. I have practiced the blocks with a couple that I have found on the web but its not the same. Hope it brings some news soon, was going to go away next week, but think I might have to postpone till I get started.

Janome has a great 1/4" foot with guide..I don't have it here in NJ ..It's in NC..Go on Ebay and check it out. Just type in Janome 1/4" presser foot with guide..

I have Vikings & a Pfaff, also a Janome Platinum 720..cute little machine.

OK ladies don't laugh, I see with a brother Walmart $69 special, and have been for 5 years, it has never stired me wrong, lol. The other funny thing is I have a 1\4 with guide and never knew what it was, so never used it, boy used it today definitely makes things easier. Now mind you I do have 5 machines including a embroidery one that has never been out of the box cause I don't have a computer to use with it, as well as a featherweight that works great. Lol
