Guilty as charged. Just got a JoAnn's Sale Flyer in the mail and guess what??? Wednesday Sept 14th is Senior Discount Day. If you are 60 or older 20% off your total purchase. It includes regular and sale items!!! Geez, I am so excited, I sent this twice. Sorry

Do you have a design wall? And really, do you expect to be a successful quilter with only 3 sewing machines? :) :) :)

You only have 1 plastic tote of fabric? Maybe it's time to visit Connecting Threads :D

Congrats on the find!!
Love this "motivation" theme...I'm so motivated by this board that I'm supposed to get my second Featherweight tomorrow, a year ago I'd never heard of them.

Very cute story. But I bet it's a good feeling having that all organized and a new machine to boot.

Then you all tell me how many sewing machines you have and I only have two. But, lo and behold, there is one at a yard sale. A Janome no less. And because I am falling behind you all I just have to buy it.

So please be careful what you tell me next.....



:D :D :D
I want to know if your putting your fabric in glass cabinet?
