I think most women struggle with finding a comfortable, good fitting bra. Our younger daughter is tiny, an XS or "0" clothing, and she has problems just as I do at the other end of the scale.

My comment was poorly written.

It wasn't the stitch length that was really tiny, it's the machine itself. Which, of course, makes it easy to transport - but doesn't give much room for...

I'm one of the few who didn't love mine.

I bought it specifically for use at classes/retreats/sewing days, as they are so portable. Compact and lightweight, unlike my Bernina 153QE - which is...

I rarely put a walking foot on, although I only quilt small items (baby quilts, runners). It will depend in part on the machine you are using; some have a built in feature that helps even feeding. ...

Adorable!

Did you keep the measurements you used, and if you did, would you be willing to share them? This would be a cute quilt in most any focus fabric, I think.

Many years ago, I tried the June Taylor one, and did not like it at all. The plastic strips between cuts wobbled as I rolled the rotary cutter down the slots, causing incorrect cutting.

I'm not surprised; what isn't going up and up in cost? Many corporations are making record profits.

Rarely do I buy fabric that's not on sale, same for notions. Quite a few years ago, there...

Wow, I don't know where they are selling for that much. In the Finger Lakes area, you can get them for under $500. Like many things, I guess, it's all about location.

Even if I wanted to, there's no way my shoulders and neck would allow me to quilt anything larger than a baby or small throw. Too much tugging and arranging of the sandwich needed.
