daughter works...

Brother machines by
Lynn
Hi ladies!
I used to read (and post to) the group ages ago, before I disappeared
into the blackhole that is new mommyhood. Anyway, my current sewing
machine is an Elna 6600 (Quilter's Dream). I'm happy with it, when I
somehow manage to carve out time to sew on it. But, a set up of
machines at...

in England).
We have just booked our accommodation for next year (it's scarce,
you have to get in early).
Try this on Google Maps: search for "YO2 1RB Whitby". Go into
Street View. That will probably give you a picture of a...

Now I really don't mean to be a downer here but have you considered
what/where your tools and stash would go if you passed ( or failed)?
There's a little paragraph in my will that says that my opals go to the

Hello folks,
We are trying to use more beans, lentils, barley and so on and fewer
potatoes and bread in our diet. This is difficult as my son's favourite

I truly hate digital cameras by
NightMist
I cannot take a picture with one to save my freaking life!
Even with a tripod they come out all fuzzy and out of focus.
I have two 35mm slr cameras that I can take perfectly fine pictures with,
but film and developing is almost impossible to find anymore, at least

Five of my friends are members of the Lowe's team in the upcoming Quest for
