Yep, Guilty. Right Here. LOL I'm working on my very first project-a table runner made of three blocks of four charms which are snowballed on three sides to make a flower. (So three flowers) Anyway, I got my quilt top done, measured and cut my backing and batting, pinned the sucker down and stood back wondering what I should do now. I ordered a free motion foot for my sewing machine but it hasn't arrived yet. I thought of doing the whole thing by hand because Lord knows if I try to machine SITD it will look like a dogs breakfast. My machine does these fancy little stitches though so I chose one that looks like a leafy vine and I am pretty much just bordering around the flowers. It is just a table runner though, I can't imagine trying to get a twin sized quilt into the throat of my machine. LOL, So I really have no tips or advice for you but I feel your pain in the jaw, I've been tilting my whole body the way I am sewing and it hurts! Being six months pregnant doesn't help either. Maybe baby enjoys the rocking...

I am hoping someone answers on the STID and stipple or either...
