My Gramma bought this 401A in 1956 and gave it to my Mom. The only other machines I have used are the ones in home ec class. I thought about one of the new fancy ones for a bit but mine has done everything I have asked it to do all these years and I know how to fix and maintain it so I'm sticking with it. I really love everything but the color, in all fairness though it is a better color than the 40 year old olive hand mixer that I still have. I am looking forward to getting started

Welcome from the SHO-ME state - Missouri!!! If you can follow a dress pattern you can surely follow a quilt pattern. So, you will be able to make those 6 children lots of quilts in the months/years to come! Save every little scrap too - you never know when they will come in handy.
