I got the quilt for a friend finished and she will be picking it up tomorrow. My first scrap quilt and am happy to say I am hooked.

I will be making 2 more next week. It will be a little different but basically the same. I had never made scallops before and was looking for a ruler. We stopped in at my favorite sewing machine shop to see what they had and saw the new Janome sewing quilting machine and we ended up buying it. I love it. It has an industrial motor and lots of other things that I am still trying to figure out. I think I will be going back for some one on one time with them for a class on it.

It did come with a book, and 2 CDs. So in the future I will be doing a lot of playing. I will keep you posted as I go.
I am now taking clothes apart to make the next 2 scrap quilts. Lady’s mother passed away and I am making her and her sister memory quilts. Great way to spend a cold snowy day. I hope everyone stays safe
Enjoy your new machine, and stay warm this week!🥶

Your scallop edged quilt looks amazing, your friend will be delighted with it.
I have machine envy – it look a bit scary but I’m sure the manuals and a couple of classes will soon have you whizzing along on it.

Thank you for both. We tried several ways to get a quilting machine, but no room and they are kinda pricey. So this one has a bigger throat plate and quilts with ease. Great compromise.
