Of all things! I've been quilting inside under lights that produce some
heat and using a steam iron - wearing my fur-lined boots and a flannel shirt
over my regular tasteful ensemble of sort of matching sweatshirt and pants.

Sapphire 875Q - any thought? by
Jo Pender
Hi all,
I am thinking of upgrading my machine soon and wondered if anyone was
using the Sapphire 875Q from Husqvarna. How do you find it? Have you
used it with the fab-u-motion? Is that as good as it sounds?
Any feedback from the group would be really useful.
Thanks
Jo P
