The machine will quilt differently. I prefer to use the stitch length regulator trick on all my machines, instead of dropping the feeddogs.The stitches seem better. Make lots of practice mats to get used to the machine. I resisted doing that for too long. Once I started doing practice mats, the whole use of the machine got better and better! (And so did my quilting) lolSherri https://www.blogger.com/profile/04928191196045775058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79942022114351470.post-70359373017982565462015-08-11T16:17:29.913+01:002015-08-11T16:17:29.913+01:00GREAT choice.

If the speed bothers you too much you can get a speed regulator, not a STITCH regulator but a SPEED regulator that you just turn the knob to choke down the machine to a comfortable speed. You might like that option!<br />Enjoy!Sherri https://www.blogger.com/profile/04928191196045775058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79942022114351470.post-2676547401000499842015-08-10T14:22:56.215+01:002015-08-10T14:22:56.215+01:00Ooh enjoy!!

Once Molly starts I bet she won't stop, except when she decides to have a Katie phase! My latest quilt top sounds exactly like your retro flowers - but it will be enjoyed just the same and is so much better than not getting anywhere for lack of time, sleep and patience. <br />That fabric pull is gorgeous too.

The bobbin is a pain, but it does get easier -as you do it more often.as does the threading. also there is no warning that you've run out of thread, and I've sewn for ages without noticing! But oh she is sweet and fast, and there's never any sign of her being temperamental (unless I've done something wrong). Any names? A good solid, no nonsense name, like Betty or Hilda - someone you can rely on!Dianne Nealehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03736776792425378741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79942022114351470.post-55722570346886166792015-08-05T07:35:32.843+01:002015-08-05T07:35:32.843+01:00Looks very professional (to my layman's eye). ...Looks very professional (to my layman's eye).

My older one could speak a great deal by the time he was 1.5 and my younger one had just about 20 words when he was 2 but he could sign language - his own invention that we all learned - like no one's business. As she needs the words she will have more and more.
