Hi, I'm Carolyn from Delaware. I've been reading the topics for a few months & have learned so much. I do get confused by all the acronyms used, for example, what is ITD? Is there a list?
Also has anyone bought one of the new sashiko machines? I think Baby Lock has the exclusive on this machine right now. I love the look of hand stitching by machine. I don't know if the machines are available yet or the price of one.

I have seen the machine used on Fons and Porters Love of quilting, but have not seen one at a LQS. Welcome and happy quilting.

Thanks so much for that site. This will help a lot understanding what folks are talking about.
I think this will be the best discussion group I have ever joined. I wish I had time to read all the links everyday.

Welcome from Oklahoma! The Babylock Sashiko machine has been out a couple of years. The last time I checked on the price, it was around $2500. Way too much for this gal for such a specialized machine!
