It's amazing what people will throw away. I'm glad you rescued the machine and cabinet.

Cats are excellent supervisors and inspectors - also good as paperweights on paper, but not so on fabric! Very cute quilt and nice job of quilting with all that "help" - lol.

Great machine...

The quilt is darling! You did a wonderful job on the cabinet too, and the machine looks great!

very nice job!!

If you are in for "crash courses" in piecing and/or quilting, go to Youtube and get some tutorials. There are many and they are usually very informative. Good luck, and welcome to the club

What a spectacular save!

Your first quilt is amazing. Great work! Also your machine looks very nice. Can't believe someone would just throw it away but some see it as junk. We see it as a jewel. Can't wait to see your next quilt. I am also self taught & now days with the internet it is so much easier to get info. I used to get my info at the library. I was always checking books out on quilting. There are a ton of great you tube videos to help you with anything you want to know about quilting. Also if you ever have questions you can count on the board members here. They are always willing to help. They are a great bunch of people.

What a great quilt!!!! You should be very proud. It is adorable.
