About Me: I have been quilting about 16 years. I tend to like smaller projects such as lap quilts or wall hangings. I like pieced quilts but do some applique (on machine). I am working on maching quilting my own quilts. I have an embroidery machine and incorporate this in my quilting.

It really is amazing how people don't "get it" as to how much time goes into something like that. My husband tells people that all I have to do is set up the machine and it sews itself! He doesn't get it either--good thing we have a site like this and we understand! Anyway, great job on both!

Haven't tried a king size, but queens do so well - not that I make that many of them - how many do you actually need? ;-) I started my life with Jamones with a Memory Craft 3000. In 2005, our house got hit by a killer hailstorm that destroyed the south side of our home. My 3000 was sitting in a double, double-paned set of windows. When I got home from work, it was sitting in water, glass and golf-ball sized hail stones. Not one to panic - much - I let it dry our for 5 days before I tried it - sewed like nothing had happened to it. No doubt in my mind that I wanted the 6600P, but had to wait for a while before hubby said to buy it. Glad he did.

The sewing center near my house sells Janome and Elna and he was steering me towards the Elna for some reason. I have a Husqvarna sewing machine.

At 6:35am on April 29, 2009, Alicia Sawyer said…: Hi Sandy! I haven't talked to you in awhile! How are you doing? I'm finally getting back into somewhat of a regular routine and hope to get back to quilting more in the weeks to come. Can I ask you what kind of embroidery machine you have? I have been researching them lately and I've narrowed it down but its still a bit pricey so I'm trying to justify the cost with how much I will actually use it. Any advice you have would be helpful!

Larry has been out of work since July so our daughter who lives here suggested he apply at a dealership here. They offered him a job, but now have put him on indefinite hold until the economy gets better. Very frustrating. I have to go 20 miles in to Columbia to the nearest Janome dealer. He is getting ready to move to a new location so I'm hoping he will be able to offer classes once he gets moved & settled. I have been finishing a lot of UFOs since I have been here as well as adding more to my pile! I would imagine you are keeping pretty busy too.

It was wonderful hearing from you. My husband was born in Dublin, but next time you come here, try to visit Donegal County...it is hauntingly beautiful here.
Your dogs are so cute! We love animals too so much!

The picture is beautiful, where did you find the pattern for the girl. That's really something and the way you have it framed, it looks like a real picture. Did you do it by hand or on your machine? Really nice.

I've enjoyed looking at your photo album. My sister-in-law has a very classy Bernina embroidery machine and used some lovely motifs in her quilts. As for the Irish dancing, I dance with a small group and we have a lot of fun! Several of us are well into our 50's so we have trouble remembering the steps from week to week, but we have a very lovely, patient young woman as our instructor. We don't wear the special Irish dancing costumes, just matching tee shirts and black pants when we do the occasional performance. We dance just for the joy of it! Libby
