I have been so excited!! I actually bought this at the AQS show in Chattanooga about a month ago! Then came some surgery and lots of time not being able to go get it. Finally!!!! I got it Friday and have been slowly getting everything set up and ready. It has been harder without my chief helper around to do the heavy work, but I managed to find help.
I think I got a good deal. I got the Babylock Tiara II, mat for the top, the table, the bobbin winder, the stitch regulator, and the 3 year gold warranty program for roughly $1000 more than a used machine without regulator, tables, etc. I feel pretty good about it. There were several I'd rather have if I were filthy rich, but this fits my budget for now.
I am a pretty bad FMQuilte on my DM, so here's hoping I can get this right!!
This is the back of my of my Halloween quilt, HocusPocusville. Since the name is quilting confessions, I'll admit the awful truth. I didn't have enough of the backing fabric I wanted so I just ordered 2 more yards. Well guess what? Still not enough. So I took some left over fabric from the front and made a basic design. I tell myself it has more interest this way. (Yes, I do realize I'm full of it!!) Wish I'd had enough.
In other news, my 6 month mammogram was today, and it's "iffy" . I am hoping we can watch it for a while. Dr. tomorrow. And my wonderful husband of 30 years today is almost 4 weeks out of his surgery and on the mend.
