Even More Boxes

 I should have planned this better.

 The house is a sea of boxes and piles of stuff that need attention and I just added several more to the problem. The IRS surprised me with a nice refund check that I wasn't expecting so I thought I would put it to good use. Something for me.

I gifted myself a big girl sewing machine. For years I have been reading reviews and watching videos trying to decide what I wanted. I decided on this Juki because....I don't know. It seems that they all have their pros and cons but I wanted something specifically for free motion quilting and I think this will do it.

 There is lots more work room to shove a quilt through. It's a big machine.

Here is the machine I am using now. Big difference. I've quilted several big quilts on this machine and it was not fun.

 This machine is simple. It does one thing. It sews a straight line. Nothing fancy here. That's just what I wanted. I've got four other machines that can do the fancy stuff.

 It's a serious quilter. It came with two quilting feet and a heavy duty walking foot. That's good. They are pricey.

Homework time. I've got plenty to learn but at the moment I am still trying to put my house back together so it will have to wait. One mess at a time.
