Sounds like our group; there are four of us that went from elementary, jr. high and high school and we get together for each our birthdays and other outings as well. We call ourselves the "Spring Chicks Forever". Only one of the GF's married high school sweetheart and after two grown daughters he went for a younger girl. bummer

Have wanted to do this for a long time,,, my dear GF loves this print... i found it in ME and am going to make her a tote for her B-Day... we are a group of 4 girls that Graduated from the same school, same class,,, and married our HS sweethearts... and are STILL married to them... we get together about 6 times a year...

But yes, we "Spring Chicks Forever" always have a great time together.
I love that pattern and have emailed your design to the girls and they loved it. I had thought of making them all a tote bag with a spring chicken on it but I have so many UFOs right now and also WIPs which will get back to as soon as I finish income tax, and my mother's application for Medicaid. (worse than doing income tax, believe me. Info is all there just so much and so time consuming, copy this, copy that....went through it with my dad's five years ago so I knew what it was going to be like).
Happy times to you and your GFs.

that is very common... i bought the magine back in 2000... i worked there.... took a few "lessons" from the Diva that is the "pro" there.... didn't make a heck of a lot of sense to me... for pros tend to take the basic stuff for granted.... just get the "book" (of course now it's a DVD heaven forbid we have paper copy for reference).. and take it one step at a time... which machine?... good luck , barbara
:D pm anytime

I love hearing all these others that have "stuck it out"... it's so much better.. espcially now that we are retired... remembering our "youth" and chuckling about NOW... who can get up from the chair fastest after an hr. or so of TV!!!!
:lol: Look into Janome... have a close dealer... have someone actually do a design... watch and see what seems more clear to you..
