    How do you decide on a machine?

    This may sound like a naive question coming from someone who has been sewing/quilting for a long time, but how does one decide, out of the many machines out there, which one is best for quilting?

    Wow, that's a tough one. You don't want to seem ungrateful but at the same time, buying patterns and fabric for someone is very personal. It's like buying someone underwear!

    Thanks everyone. I think I'll start with the daylight or reveal bulbs in the four recessed lights in the ceiling. Now there are those twisty ones which my husband likes because they are "green" but...

    I wish I could come up with another adjective besides gorgeous, beautiful, and stunning! I have several bargello books and keep wanting to start one. Maybe this will be my incentive.
