That sounds like a good day Lynn!!

Have I started sewing yet? Weeeeeel.... it goes like this. I've been really inspired by some art quilts I've been seeing. I think at the moment, after years of having to make more traditional stuff I can't get that going at the moment, past life and all. SO! I've had a look around on line and found a couple of places that do workshops nearish to me and I've signed up for a few. I wanted to make a case for my cutting rulers, cutters and scissors to take with me on the courses and after a bit of a thunk I've pieced together a Moda jelly roll I just couldn't think of what to do with and now I'm playing on it before I make it up into cases.

I'm certainly learning my way around the machine! I can pattern start and pattern finish without thinking about it. I know how to slow the motor down, adjust the tensions, which tensions are better on which threads, sit the bobbin case in quite easily without looking and, most important, learned how useless the manual is without a decent contents page (Bernina, if you reading, it really is dire, please pull your finger out)!!!

Bob the Bernina and I are bonding.

well, SNAP Amanda, I don't have a contents page in my 630 manual, seems like a contents fairy has pinched them all,
and SNAP again, I spent today sewing a Hoffman batik jelly roll, made 40 blocks, just simple rail fence, will email the pics. havent decided yet how to put them together!!!!

If you are refering to http://www.justhands-on.tv I checked with them about a forum/chatroom and Jenny let me know that they are planning to get the full grownup version going in July. So I guess that we will just have to contain ourselves in patience.

yours in the cause
