    Virtual Quilting Retreats or Groups?

    I may be the only one but I have no desire to attend a quilting retreat in person. The idea of packing everything up to take somewhere else so I can do exactly what I can do at home leaves me cold. ...

    I agree with Peckish. I just did a quick check of prices online and I don't see prices anywhere near that level for other fabric. Tilda's is probably along the line of Liberty of London Fabrics. ...

    My Janome 8200 has the same problem. It's very frustrating. My Berninas don't seem to have any issue with a thick seam, so I sew on them most of the time.
