For many years–okay, for all the years that I’ve been quilting–I’ve wished for a table that was specially made for sewing machines, where my machine would sit down in the table so that the machine bed was level with the table top.

An Interesting Place
May 13, 2011
By way of a little “touching base/checking in” type post, I find myself in an interesting place at the moment, both literally and figuratively: Augusta is an interesting place.
