    What a pretty machine! You are so lucky to have a hubby who can figure these things out. I showed it to my hubby, and he said, "Sorry hon, I can't do that for you. I'm not a machinist." lol That's ok, one day I hope I'll have a quilting setup of my own. Congratulations on your marvelous luck and beautiful machine!

    Your new quilting set-up is wonderful and a beautifully decorated vintage machine to boot! But, the biggest blessing is your hubby!

    I love your machine. Wonder if i could do my vintage one that way. Then I could maybe find some Tinkerbell decals. That would be awesome.

    Your quilting is looking good to. I bet you could do a quilt now. Ya'll did a great job.

    This speaks volumes about you and your husband's marriage. It's so wonderful that he would do this for you.

    Congrats! The color is great and how exciting to have your own personalized long arm. I have an old machine that works great but looks awful (paint chipping of to the metal) that I thought would be fun to paint a different color...hummm!!!!

    I didn't mark the quilt. That is all freehand. I need a lot of practice but I am going to do a little at a time. I could do meandering on a quilt now. I have done meandering on the machine and I feel very comfortable with it. I am just real shakey on fancy designs like these talented ladies on the board. Thanks for the comments.
