I just found out yesterday where Bikini Bottom is - from my best friend's DGS. Are you a Sponge Bob fan?

Brother CS600i

I also have a singer 401a and an older Sears Kenmore I need to do more with :oops: LOL

The machine I use is my own 2 hands. I am the machine. I am old fashioned I guess and I love the therapy of doing hand work, and the satisfaction when its finished.

When I do a quicky for kids or something like that, I use my Memory Craft 4000. Its all I need and more. Hand quilting rules at my house. Sure is hard to find anymore. :( Its sad but I understand how progress changes our lives. Not mine. Here is a bit of work.

Do you hand piece, too? Your applique is STUNNING!

Viking #1 (computerized)and an older kenmore (mechanical).
Actually the older kenmore works as well (if not better than the Viking), but doesn't have needle down option.

I love, love, love my Bernina 1630 - bought her used about 6 yrs ago and still learning what she can do. I also have a featherweight that I have never used but like her, a very pretty Singer treadle that I lovingly use for decor in a spare bedroom (did try her out once) and another older Singer with a dome top (not sure which # it is) that is stored away until I can get some time to play with her.
