yeah, while waiting for another bra pattern to arrive in mail, I'm sewing pants. How's the quilting project? After my pants are finished, I'll be starting a quilt.

My All Machines quilt is under way. With over 30 machines I've decided to make a quilt from scrap denim and use each and every machine to do it with.
So my squares are going to be 6.5", however much of the scraps only allow for 3.5" pieces. Doing the math, 4 x 3.5 = 6.5". I've sewed the 3.5" squares into 6.5" squares with the Singer 3810, 99K, and Minnesota ~B~ so far.
(Minerva, the Minnesota ~B~ gave me the least trouble of all three. The other two seem to be cranky about the tension. Minerva don't care, she just sews up a storm.)
Got to cut more squares now, I'm out.
I think next machine up will be more squares with the 99K, after that ....... to be determined.

Well, the body of the quilt is done. I am now piecing the borders!
Here is a really good deal and I love the cabinets that say the name of the machine! http://sacramento.craigslist.org/atq/3052343175.html
