    I also agree with not putting the cozies in the microwave. Even the ones that are 100% cotton I don't put in the microwave.

    Wow. I wasn't brought up that way either. When I joined this guild last year I knew no one at the first meeting. I had talked to one woman on the phone beforehand. Everyone was very welcoming.

    I just applique stitch the label on the quilt back. Then you are only putting the needle through one layer of fabric, not the complete quilt sandwich.

    Those are beautiful. My mother has a 301 in a cabinet like yours. She bought it in mid-50's brand new. She also still has the stool with storage under the seat.
