How I have missed dancing....
with Matilda! I thought it'd be easier to fmq my sisters quilt on my normal sewing machine. Well, boy, was that a stupid thing to think! I ripped out a whole length of stitching then moved to Matilda. Boy can that girl dance!! Off to do the last few rows then around the border. If I'm lucky, I'll get the binding on tonight!
Re: How I have missed dancing....
Of course she missed you too!!! No you can't just park her to the side and use your other machine, she could get mad and spit thread at you :-) Can't wait to see what Matilda does on this one, Enjoy

Lol, my longarm's name is Gertrude.
Re: How I have missed dancing....
You and Matilda dance up a storm! She's probably thinking you learned your lesson.
Re: How I have missed dancing....
I did get it all quilted last night. Have to tuck in threads and do the binding still. After a full looooong day in court, I'm too pooped to even think about going up to the sewing room!
Re: How I have missed dancing....
I love that you went dancing with Matilda! Can't wait to see what you have created.
I need to get dancing again with mine. I was just getting comfortable with it. Hmmm, maybe I shouldn't be calling the machine "it" - I think it needs a name. Matilda is a great name, but it is already taken. Any ideas?

That's a good one...or Maggie, I like that too. You should look up the meaning of Matilda....the name fits her! She can do 3000 spm!
Re: How I have missed dancing....
I have a niece named Maggie, so it might get confusing! LOL
Re: How I have missed dancing....
I like meg lol.
My Ruby is named Ruby. The sergers name is Sarge.
Gertrude came about because I wanted a G name to go with Gammill.
Re: How I have missed dancing....
Matilda is what my mother called me when I was bugging her. I love your Matilda!

I am the middle child. When I got older, I was always called the instigator!!! Can't imagine why......hahahahahaha!!!!!
Before that, I always thought my name was pampaulapat! because she would just go down the line, stopping when she got to the one she wanted!
