New machine - new quilt
#32
congrats on your new machine and your wonderful, colorful quilt... oh yeah, and your adorable grandson. I just became a first time grandma about six months ago and love the feeling. I love your quilt shop in Windham and have found some great fabric there.

Nice quilt, darling boys and you will continue to love that Brother.....I have one that has become my favorite "go to" machine. I also have a Janome 6600 so that I can do non-straight stitches, but the Brother is a workhorse and so easy to use. I hope you love yours as much as I love mine.......I bought mine in 2000 and have only had to have it cleaned once. I usually remove the bottom and clean it myself.....easy and definitely cheaper.....LOL!

How can anything that brings that joyous a response have any downsides? It made my day better just to see the happiness and love. My effort is going to keep the smile on my face all day. Thanks.
And another thing. When did straight line quilting become anathema? Did I miss the memo? I've seen some really nifty straight line quilting ideas combined singly and/or separately with interesting fabric/pattern choices. And, let it be whispered in the dark, my thoughts about quilts is that they need to be puffy as well as conform around and over the body. Cardboard quilts do not do it for me.
Mea culpa.

Love your cutie..............and your quilts. Isn't wonderful when they love what Grandma made? Great job on your first machine quilted quilt. I, too, have too many projects to do them by hand. Admire those who do, but it is not for me.
