I am from Southern Illinois but live in Indiana for the last 20 years. Harrisburg! Still have daughter, sisters and brother there. What part are you from?
Welcome for Southern Illinois! I work full time too, but one of these days I'm going to retire then lookout. I quilt in my mind constantly and on my machine when I can.
Welcome to our group from the small country town of Meeker, Oklahoma! Glad to have you! There is also a thread that is devoted to vintage machines, that will be great for you!
