    If it could go wrong it did today, my hightlights - I took a moccasin course through work and completed my first pair! Low light - my son gave his (my DH and mine) gas card to a friend and he bought gas for himself and a few of his friends....but I got home to find that Maggie has been delivered from a dear dear...oh did I say Dear, friend...bless her heart! I thrive in the quilting world, it is just me the fabric and the machine all beating as one....Here is Maggie...

    ain't she sweeet!

    Isn't that the sweetest picture. Is this your first Featherweight and a 222. Wow. One thing about living in Canada, we do see a few more 222 than those in the USA. Bummer about the gas card.

    Your 222 looks wonderful and it is the machine that I am hunting for. I've found several 221's lately at reasonable prices but no 222 as yet. Your mocassins look great and I bet you end up making more. They look like an addictive hobbie. As for your son, I hope he is involved in "teenage slave labour" until his debt is paid off. We've just managed to get our darlings to young adulthood and I must say that I am not missing having a teenage son. They can be such a challenge but it does get better. My now 23 year old just put new headlights in my car as my gift and cooked me a wonderful birthday supper. I was amazed!
