When you get all the pictures, we can make a book out of it.
Also I almost have my next quilt top ready but my machine went down and my featherweight is not working and the other old singer I have, the belt came apart. Thr Singer's haven't been used in a very long time. So tomorrow I am taking my main machine and the featherweight to my man. It is about 90 miles, so I am going to see if they could get one working while I wait. I knew my main machine was going down, but I was hoping I could finish the quilt first.
Are you getting close to quota?

Oh, the waiting is so hard! But, I’m doing the happy dance in Bedford VA today, wahoo!!
