Great Leo star, Libster. Nice fussy cut and the color you added really compliments that print.

Here are my last two blocks. Sniff, sniff. First one is for Ljdugas. Pinwheel Flower.
Second one is for Muse&Sew. It's a 3 D Box, but I'm going to name it "Good morning, Universe". Hope y'all like them.

Lister - love your blocks - the pinwheel flower is your new signature block!
Muse - pictures are mandatory
no blocks from me - my machine refuses to sew a straight line and I am tired of doing the frog stitch.

Well done on your last two blocks, Libster! I know the feeling... I even ordered and received my fabric for the next boom already! I saw the perfect thing and went for it.

TG, I am having machine trouble too. Just cant get the stitches to balance on my Juki. They are either too tight on top, or too tight on bottom. When I get them adjusted to something halfway decent, the tension reverts to bad, mid-seam! Sooooo frustrating. I am shipping it to the place I bought it, hoping they can figure it out. No good repairmen here. I know as much as they do! I'm secretly hoping it falls off the UPS truck so I can collect the insurance and get a replacement for that lemon.

I'm using my good ole Bernina 830 Record now. Nice stitches on it.

Great blocks Libster

Well I did it, went and bought the HQ16 sit down. Trading my sweet 16 head in for what ever the new one is called. It should be here by the weekend by it depends on the weather. Major snow storm predicted.

Great blocks everyone! I love mine. Happy Birthday ���������� Janice. Hope you had a wonderful day.
Speaking of machines, I was looking on line at a Grace SR 2 frame that uses a regular machine. Does anyone have any experience with those frames?

Thanks for the compliments, Guys. I feel lost with no more blocks to do. Time to take my own advice I guess and start looking for new blocks for the next Boom. Just keep feeding me pictures of your finished blocks so I won't have withdrawal pangs so badly.

MM I had an original handiquilter frame and a sewing machine with a couple extra inches of throat space. It just didn't have enough throat space to do anything other then baby quilts or very small lap quilts
