This is just such a cool thing!! Great job on the mariner's compass!! I think its too funny that NOW you get the stuff you've been wanting, the question is, will you ever get a chance to use it now? LOL May want to have him make matching pairs so he can have his own :D

Unbelieveable first try!!!!! You go Big Guy! Perfect points the first time.....ok, when can we ambush him???? Just joking! Good for you that you now have a partner in crime. I bet no more hagging about the $$ spent on fabric! I say give him your machine and you go up a notch...what do you think? Looks great! :D :D :D GiGi

That is beautiful! He did a wonderful job and what a wonderful husband to be trying something so new to him. I know many men would say it was a waste of time, etc., etc. Kudos to him. My husband has helped me pick out fabric and helped me cut fabric and has been interested in sewing but hasn't attempted it....YET. lol.

Doyle has figured it out. A sewing machine is just another power tool. You figure out how it works, you figure out how to control it. At that point, it's the design, it's the fabric, it's the finished project.
great start. Mariners Compass is on the list for several years down the road. You done good to: number one... choose it for your first project, and number two... do a great job on it.
And I think Doyle needs his own Bernina 830. That's a man's machine.
