You are awesome. That is great. I am a fifties kid and remember the end of the fifties, we lived in Georgia for a couple years on a navy base. I remember the lunch counter at Woolworths and the ladies wore white dresses with checkered (red and White hats) Thats about all I remember except for the MUSIC.....

I got the most beautiful fans today with amazing crocheted lace from the Diva in NYC. Dotty. THANK YOU they were perfect. AND, i got my round robin back and I can't tell you how I felt when I unfolded it. You will never know how stunning it is until you see it in person. I LOVE YOUR BORDER Dot.
Picking up your machine on thursday and will get it in the to the Post and Pack store.
Thanks for everything.

It's here, It's here. Now for the next hour I will have to move my stuff off of the sewing table and get it all arranged. I will take a picture when I have it set up.
Judy, your center is first on the list and I'm telling you it is going to exquisite it. I have it all set up to start.

To put it in the language of the Pointer Sisters,
"I'm so excited, that I can't hide it, makes me want to lose control but I think I like it......." Yahooo.
Woow.
the crazy Parisian quilter.......

Congrat on the machine arriving. Hope you are having fun with it.. Love all the blocks that were posted.
I had saddle shoes in the sixth grade. That was in the 70's. Wasn't born until 1957 so don't remember the 50's except what my parents told me.
