I didn't know my first "straight stitch" was now considered "vintage", but that makes sense since my nieces and nephews consider me to be vintage! I'd almost like it back (it was a very sturdy Singer) but it didn't do buttonholes. Anyway, one of my nieces has it now, and it's still going strong, and she's still using it. It's many decades old, but they sure knew how to build them back then. I'm having fun with my new stitches. Still don't know what I'm going to do with them all, but it will be fun trying them out. Thanks for writing! MacThayer |

have lot of fun with your new multi stitch. Isn't technology fun and annoying at the same time. If you have not, I suggest you buy a workbook for your new machine, it will be invaluable. I was absolutely gobsmacked when I walked into the sewing machine store and saw all of the new machines with all of the stitches. I had no idea it had come to this, honestly. A computerized sewing machine? It never occurred to me. I was going to go for a machine with far fewer stitches, but my husband is a computer techie, and he was with me, and was absolutely enthralled with the fancy machines. He kept pushing me toward the fancier machines. That's how I ended up with one with so many stitches. He kept saying: "If you don't get one now, you'll start sewing and wish you had more variety in your stitches." He's probably right, I don't know. Am just getting started "playing" with the stitches. It sure is fun! |

Have a great day to all, Vicki I'm probably boring you by now! I do tend to get carried away when talking about sewing/quilting. Let's do meet. I have to go out of town next week, so perhaps when I get back, so say early August? |

Did you notice the message that a bunch of area quilters are getting together for lunch at the Cheesecake Factory on August 23rd at 1:00 PM? This is for anyone from the area. Would you be interested? I just got back from a class reunion and am just getting my act back together here at home. Sherrill (MacThayer) |

Have a great day to all, Vicki Did you hear about the luncheon for quilters from our area? It's at the Cheesecake Factory Restaurant in the District on Tuesday, August 23rd at 1:00 PM. Looks like about 10 people coming already. Should be a blast! I'd love to meet you there. Let me know. I can let the person who's setting it up add you on. The more the merrier! Sherrill |
