Have you been adopted yet? I have the same machine as you do. I'd be happy to help you learn to really use it.

I have a Juki on a Watts frame and have been quilting seriously since '88. I have a Bernina (older model) for piecing. I love to quilt and I'm willing to adopt a newbie. Anyone? Anyone?, Bueller?

Hi, I'd be more than happy to help you with your quilting. While I've been quilting a little under 3 yrs, I have many many hours on my machine. Let me know you are interested. Patt

Hi Amma: I had an Amma, but she went hone in May of 2000. She taught me how to crochet. Anyways. I am new to quilting. But joined the local Applique Society in my town. Where would you suggest I find the largest variety of English Paper Piecing supplies? I would like my 2nd quilt to be in this technique. I work Full Time but will check back on this Awesome website frequently. Thanx! :lol:

I want to be adopted! I'm really new to quilting and would love to have someone help me out. I'm working on a 9 block sampler right now that I hope I can finish soon. I've never done an applique and I have never done a binding. Ok, ok, I've never finished a quilt but that's because I don't know how! lol I'm a great student so please send me a PM! :)

I would love to be adopted also. I've been quilting for just 3 years, tho I've been told it doesn't show. I pretty apt at 'basic' piecing, and this year I'm trying curved piecing.

Love fusible applique!

Would love a parental unit who can help me learn paper piecing, and that technique that looks like stained glass. Oh so pretty!

So if this is you....I'm available!
