We have a fantastic group of quilters on this Board, my life has been enhanced so much by meeting everyone here :D :D :D

I didn't know about the sharing of our fabrics here with our sisters across the water. I think that's what love of neighbor is all about -- sharing. I hope we do more of it.
Here's a link to the original topic about the fabric sharing :D

Izy, I,too, have a Janome 9000 set in a table. I have tried some machine quilting, straight line in the ditch stuff with my walking foot. I am taking a class this Saturday to help me become more adventurous! I love your work! :lol:

That is such a cute quilt. And your stippling looks great! I'm jealous. Maybe the secret is to stop practicing so much and just go for it. I have a quilt that I pieced last winter that I'm not crazy about. I think I'm just going to give it a try and quilt it. You give me hope!

wow! Thanks for the info.
I'm about to quilt an Irish chain, queen size, on my home Viking. For the first time I'm going to do it in pieces also. First the entire center and then add the borders. My machine is also set into a table. Hope I have as good luck as you did.
thanks again,
peel
