    :D :D :D I thought I would send this to my brother and his wife for Christmas. She loves purples and pink and such. I had no idea what I was going to do for the center, but since my Embird and Ultimate box quit, I put a dresden plate on the center square. Another idea I saw in a book. Enjoy, Huggies, Fay,, Oh another thing I didn't have purple thread so I used purple embroidery thread. The spool was too large for the spindle but I have a box full of embroidery threads on bobbins and I used the purple thread that was on a bobbin and that fit perfect on the spindle and I had no trouble sewing with it. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee......

    It is purple and pinks and such, the pictures don't do it justice and they always seem too dark tho I used a flash when I took it. I guarantee,, it's purple. Huggies, Fay
