Shame on me. I shouldn't go into a quilting or sewing machine store unsupervised.

Have fun with your new machine! I absolutely love embroidery projects and my machine gets a good workout!

Cathy,

I see you are from Patchogue, Long Island. My brother and sister-in-law lived in Oakdale for many years and lived for a few years in Blue Point. He taught at Sayville High School. They lived in the Colony, the farm area of one of the old Vanderbilt Estates. They sold and moved to Brooklyn. They had always wanted to live in the city, so when they retired they made the move. You live in a beautiful area of the world. I want to make a trip back out sometime and hopefully make a trip back out on the island.

My Dad used to say he never saw a shroud with pockets! And I also heard women like bad boys, so good for you Bad Bob - enjoy!

Karen,

I was hoping that is what you meant. I remind people that I have never seen a hearse with luggage racks. I don't know how much I will use this embroidery machine, but I have wanted one to play with.

I have it in my mind to recreate a quilt that my great grandmother made many many years ago. It is a baby quilt. It is embroidered on the nine blocks. I think I will bring it to the retreat to see if anyone thinks it can be recreated.
