How wonderful! I can't find anything near that good a deal around here.
I showed my son Jim, the quilting frame and machine I'd like (IF I had a house big enough) while he was here in June. He could not believe how much they cost. He wants to find me a good used parachute sewing machine to quilt with. He said they are work horses, but the frame....he is head of the shop so he knows machines but he doesn't know quilting except that he gets them from mom. lol
Have fun and take lots of pictures for us!
Hugs,
Sharon

While I'm very happy for you, I'll admit that I am insanely jealous. There, I've said it! Now, you know that we will expect pics of not only your new baby, but of your first project, so get crackin', girl, you have work to do!

You heifer! I want that so bad I can taste it. Was gonna get that one but I'm saving for the Pinnacle (grace) that my Babylock will fit on. I have tried it out in the store. It is super. It will take some practice as it can get away from you. It sews very nice. I have never owned a Pfaff but hear they are good machines. Can't wait to see what you do with it. Keep us posted. Deb

WOW!!!! No epidural folks, BUT, I'm resting -- I think new mother's need 3 days rest at least! GADS, I'm tired! We put it up -- took only three hours -- ONLY three hours. That baby is NEVER coming down! :mrgreen: Yes, I've played/practiced on two "quilts"...one about a lap quilt size and the other about full size bed. My friend brought the fabric....had found it for $.50 a yard!!!!! Now that I'm on my own, I'm able to really practice....and I can see it's going to take time! Unfortunately (this isn't nice)...we're having company over all week!!!!! no overnighters, but one night is the neighborhood barbecue at our house!!!! Guess I'd better clean the house, cuz it's supposed to rain!!! Oh.....DH was such a doll. Even though he wasn't feeling well, he helped cook AND did dishes!!!!!! Gotta love a man that will do that! :mrgreen:
PS -- pictures of the set-up will come tomorrow.....pics of a new quilt.......maybe next month!!! LOL
