    Cute blocks!

    No squishies in the mail today, but oldcatlady has a grown-up block headed her way in the morning.

    Okay everyone I need some help! I am new to quilting, and my machine is good for piecing, but I cannot do any machine quilting on it because the feed dogs do not drop. My birthday is coming up and I want to get a new machine that I can do more with and has more options. What do you guys reccommend around the $300 range? The Quantum 9960 was recommended to me at a cost of 369.00 but I found it on Amazon for 231.00. I watched a video about it and it seemed like a good machine, but since you guys have more experience I wanted to know what your thoughts were. All help and comments welcome!!!

    I find it easier to do FMQ by turning the stitch length to zero and NOT dropping the feed dogs. Check out Leah Days Free Motion Quilting Project. http://freemotionquilting.blogspot.com/ Thats where I discovered the easy way of FMQ.
