An Equal Opportunity Sewist

Second “practice” quit, while certainly not perfect, is so much improved that I will be able to take it to the county health department where there is a need.  I purchased this book recently which includes a series of “lessons” that walk you through some of the patterns for all over quilting.  I’m finding it very helpful.

Last week, some of the quilt bloggers were doing a “Meet My Machine.”  I decided to keep a count of the machines that were mentioned.  Some sewists used more than one but I did not count any that were mentioned as collectibles and I did not count single purpose machines such as quilters or sergers.

3 Babylocks; Crescendo, Elizabeth and Elure+
16 Berninas; Sport 801, Sport 802, 125 Activa, 1580, 153QE (2), 440QE (5), 750QE, 780, 1230, 350PE and Virutoso
