About Me: We lived in Iowa for many years, but moved to NW Arkansas in 2010. It is a wonderful place to live and we are very happy here. I used to do a lot of garment construction and alterations when in IA, but now only do quilting. It has become my hobby of choice.
We have three married daughters and 7 grandchilren, ranging in age from 9 to 21 years. I enjoy spending time with them, but also treasure my time at home with my hubby doing our own thing.

I had to play with the width and length settings a little to get it big enough but I really like how it looks. Thank you, thank you.....I'm going to try it. I can't live long enough to learn all these gadgets on this machine!

Maybe I should make one in Halloween fabric! I bet your DH Loves his new shop. And have you finished his pink gingham curtains? I hope they have lots of lace.
