I just got back from dinner and the sewing machine is humming again!

I'm still here......it did get really quiet, didn't it? I'm working on a tablerunner for my DD for Christmas..don't know if it'll get done in time or not, but it's worth a try.

That may be the problem, mequilter, the machine isn't talking with a southern accent where I can understand it, it sounds like a Yankee! LOL! fatcat, yes it comes with classes, but I can't take any until after the first of the year. I was starting to get frustrated and thinking, "I'm too stupid to play with my new toy!" and thank goodness, am having some success again with it. DH reminded me I felt the same way with my old machine and after 3 days I was in love with it. The quilting stitches are beautiful. Haven't yet tried the stitch regulator. You want to know what I was fighting with so much???....couldn't figure out how to get the screen to go back to the previous screen! LOL! I want to try out the embroidery next.

Maw, ROFLOL!!!...I already make quilts that make people cry! LOL! And I mean that sarcastically! LOL!

GP you are so funny!
MEquilter may the force be with you! Power of possitive thinking.
SFO did you have good dinner? I can't wait to see it when you are done the colors are so lovely.

I just have the last long side of my binding and I am done with the wall hanging for the il-laws. WOO HOO

Maw, You Go Girl! Post a pic for us when you're finished with it, would love to see it! mequilter, what colors are your tablerunner?

[MastiffMomQlt]

I'm back! I read through the posts & saw the pics. What a bunch a beautiful people here

I finished writing out my cards, drank hot chocolate, we're watching Lawerence of Arabia & I didn't polish my toes

GP, don't sweat it, you'll get the hang of your new machine in no time flat

Its the candy cane lane one I posted a pic of a while ago but if you promise not to mock me over my pathetic machine quilting when I am done I will put up another picture. Just cause you asked nice GP.

Did I tell you my people are from the south (the smokey mtns of TN) they moved to UT 3 generations ago but I still find things like y'all or better yet all y'all. LOL!

[mequilter9158]

The tablerunner is from the Holly Jolly charm pack. It's the only material that DD actually LIKED!! Now just hope that when she gets it she'll like it. Michelle (SFOQuilter) has really helped me with it.

Notice I didn't say that I "cooked" dinner:) I threw a Harris Ranch pot roast in the microwave and heated up a few leftovers. All happy campers here LOL. I am really liking this jelly roll quilt. It's going together really fast and there are so few seams to match - that's my favorite part. I'll post a pic when I have all the rows together.
