me too...just love them.

well ok so maybe your santee needs measurements to go with that
as they may not be familiar with size.

Read a page...mouthful of breakfast....read a page...another mouthful ! well breakfast is now finished & I'm caught up with reading pages....wish my Santee partner posted too,but nevermind...hope she likes what I send. SHOPPING TODAY (after china painting)

So sorry to hear about her! Thoughts and prayers going to her and everyone!

Today's hint

My SS has more children than I do.

I know a secret.......a really big big secret........
wanna tell so bad.............wanna tell..............
can't tell though.....oooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh.........can't tell.

My SS has eyesight problem and has zip total of 17.
My SS can surprise me!

Praying for you and your mom... hope they find what is wrong...

Dreamer, I just got this machine as my travel buddy. I have only had her for almost a week. Also, I suck at making most of the home deco items. I usually dont make things for myself. I am hoping my SS will see the post and feel sorry for me. LOL

Isn't that about how it goes...We never get around to making things for ourself!

I think my profile says quite a bit and I did post more on this thread, but have to say my SS posted more here and I was very very happy! It gave me a little bit more of a direction to go and fill in with extra's I already had. Actually a lot more so it is way easier and I know (I think) she will like the majority of what I send. Love those little hints that help along the way.

Oooohhh jaba maybe its meeeeeee! :-) lol

AHHHH, time will tell, you just never know! The hard part, at least for me, is getting the box and having to look at it until opening day.

The machine is a Brother XL 5232, I dont have the measurements on it but can get them. I can tell you that it has a carrying handle on the very top that flips down instead of the ones on the back. Will post measurements just in case my SS is watching in the morning.

I also have a Brother CS 600i that could use a cover too.

What is it??? I won't tell! Just type it in itsy-bitsy sized font and no one else will ever know! :thumbup:

well i have all kinds of rulers in different shapes and sizes,books and magazines for quilting,patterns all kinds .right now i,m
working on making a big Rooster to stand him up on my kitchen counter as a country theme decor , i love having roosters and chickens as a decor in my kitchen. home make stuff is what i enjoy most getting like a table runner or place mats , mug mats for my morning coffee ,love big coffee cupsi collect them . in fabrics i like bright colors 40,s or 50,s reto style all colors as long as there bright colors and i like to draw patterns .hope this helps anyone who might need ideas for there s.s pal

OHHHHH Ill play. I don't have a sewing machine cover to fit "Rosie' my Janome 6600 and she could sure use a nice warm cover for this winter...... :)

OMG, two days away from the computer and I have 80..that's right, 80....pages to read. Looks like a long day with nothing getting accomplished ...oh well, there's always tomorrow.

I don't have covers for my machines either, well except for those cheapie plastic things that used to come with them. But then again my machines get used often enough that the covers get thrown in a corner anyway. I figure why spend all that time making a cover for my machine when I can be making a nice quilt for someone who needs some loving warmth.

Well.....I think I know who my Secret Santa is!!!!! The problem is that I don't know who my Secret Santa is??????? I got a request in the mail yesterday asking what my three favorite fabrics are...and she signed her real name and everything...problem is...I have NO IDEA what her user name is????? Is she posting here? Is she not? It's driving me crazy! But just so I'm covering all my bases...Purples, Bright Blues and Reds! :) I'm also mailing my answer, just in case? :D What fun!

LOL Gee, it could be ANY of us, then! :D

Hey! Who let you out of the hole?

All my machines are vintage. My newest one is from the 60s. Everyone metal. I even have a hand crank and a treadle.

OK, now I'm missing the farm again.

Back to the hole with you!

You may be getting mail from a Santa's helper. I did that last year and my SS got three different packages from three different states.

Here's my hint for the day:

My SS has pets.

My usual breakfast is a lightly toasted Sara Lee (the best IMHO) cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese and my homemade apple butter.

New crop apples are in the stores, time to get this yea'rs batch done. And pumpkin butter next -- anyone ever tired to make that? It's really great for a change but my favorite is still apple. And I make my butters in a crock pot, no danger of scorching.

Here's a clue for my secret partner....she lives in a street with some beautiful houses in it!

Any batiks that came your way in error, I'll be willing to bear the burden of taking them off your hands!:D

NEESIE that is my favorite color...specific shades of tho....

Oh, sounds great, I love Thomas cinnamon with peanut butter and my homemade rasberry/peach jam. I have never tried apple, is it easy to make? I make applesauce, but my DS always sneeks all my jars out the door with him.

to my ss ,here are a few things I would like ,rotary cutter blades 45mm, pin cushion scissors used books are fine ,I like carmels York peppermint pattys thread ,fabric no orange,just about anything will be fine , got to go now and fill my box, som

Here's a pic of the desert in the fall.

love the occatillo plants.
