It's Ready to Go
Isn't that a pretty sight?! I'm having a blast on this machine. The Dual Feed function is wonderful. I've been putting the rows together on this quilt, and my other machine was pushing the bulky points off so that it was a real challenge to get them to match. The 820 with the dual feed just breezes over these seams and tonight I finished putting the rows together. Now for borders and quilting.

A Sneak Peek
Not getting a lot of work done around here, but I am enjoying some time off! Here's a peek of what is going on when I can steal some time to sew. The first three stars (only need 13 more) are from a new pattern we found at market that is planned for a fall class and the last photo is of the other fall project that I'm using as Leaders and Enders while I sew the stars. It's all fun!!!

Moving again....
My son has come home from college and we're shuffling around the two apartments for the summer. He is unpacking - you can imagine what the place looks like! I took a look and did what any sane person would do - escape to another place. I'm moving my "piecing" machine (my Bernina 150) into the guest bedroom in the apartment and will put the 820 up in the studio for quilting. This way I won't have to share the space with him so much during the summer and this will work out better for both of us!
I've been working on a few projects in the meantime. The first is a sneak peak at a quilt for the fall class schedule....
and this bag is a real treat!! It's called the Two-Hour Tulip Bag and we found it at market. It can be make in four sizes (this is the smallest) and it really does go together quickly and easily. This is a sample for the shop (we do have the pattern ;-) and I might just have to make a few more just for fun.

I did it!
I placed my order for the Bernina 820! I've been waiting for this machine, and it's just as amazing as I hoped it would be. I've been playing with it on the quilting frame up at the shop and it is a treat to quilt with it! I should have it by the end of May and I can't wait!!! Meanwhile I play with the one at the shop. Go up and try it on the frame with the BSR if you have a chance. It's a fun time.
I'm off to quilt market for the weekend. There are a few new purses that I have almost finished - a new pattern - and I'm hoping that early next week I can post a photo or two.
