    Thank you SEW much for saying this. My hubby said that he thought maybe I shouldn't post any pictures because people would be kinda jealous of all the stuff, but I explained quilters just aren't like that. The commaradery and love of quilting is what binds all of us together, and it is SUCH a blessing to know that you all can relate to my excitement and feel happy when I'm happy. In sadness and in elation, I am always in awe of how my quiltingboard friends share in every emotion experienced by all! (((HUGS)))
    BTW, I am still on cloud 9, and will probably be for a long time. Tried the hoop out last night, and it is totally amazing how much of a difference the sit-on frame makes. It takes all the weight (and the heat!) off of my lap, puts my work at the perfect angle to work much easier, and the swivel is working perfectly for my round and round and round quilting pattern I'm currently working on. It was like going from a Chevy (which is still good) to a Cadalliac. I am so blessed. Thank you Jesus!

    How about giving us the link to Fons&Porter where we can read what you wrote! I assumed it was a drawing and your name got picked. This makes it even more fun for us! Send us the link please!

    Good idea: http://www.fonsandporter.com/easy_qu...1_contest.html

    I DID e-mail them to tell them my daughter isn't 1 but 10. Makes a difference trying to teach a 1-year-old to quilt as compared to a 10-year-old! ha ha

    That is so nice! Too many young girls miss out on this fabulous talent because they are not exposed to it. I am happy to see that you take the time to work with your daughter. I cannot say CONGRATULATIONS enough!

    Thanks!! And the other COOL thing is, she can now have my normal 14" laptop hoop since I've got the upgraded one. She wins, too! :thumbup:
