Wobbling Bernina

Taria, love my Janome 6600, but I use it only for machine quilting and

the clothing of "celebrities": everyone from Eleanor Roosevelt to
Haile Salassie!

I've been reading about Ann's experience, and I feel it is up to the

Local quilt show: observations

Love this discussion.

First of all, I do all of my own machine quilting.

Sometimes, for a scrap quilt, I will purposely use an allover meander

WOW is right!

This is fantastic. I do not have the patience for pineapple blocks,

My Janome has one of those, and I don't like it because when you are
