"Amen!" to all the above! I did the "I think the bobbin will last" with my very first quilt - of course it ran out halfway through sewing on the binding. Just took a deep breath, thought, "Well, I guess I need the practice!", filled the bobbin & did it again. :P

Thank you Sandy -its been a long week at the machine here. I was changing bobbin thread color -well I pinned and sewed about a dozen blocks together only to find the new bobbin still on top of my machine.So I decided it was time for a break-so I put my shoes on to go to the bank and pay the electric bill.Well I forgot the bill come home to get it and found I had locked myself out of the house.Grrrrrrrrr. My son crawled thru a window.Then he tells me I should keep my windows locked.I'll be going out to pay the elec and on to Lowe's for a couple keys-one for the kids and the other for my 2nd set of car keys so I can lock the window and give the kid one less thing to razz me about.
