| 5653 | Welcome DatooFairy!!! Twilight... nope no way in hell would i try doing free motion with a walking foot... walking foot does straight lines and maybe gentle curves... liz_taylor - 2010-02-23 13:01:00 |

| 5658 | I'm just really starting out (only 22), but am slowly getting more organised with my sewing stuff (and getting MORE sewing stuff of course). Want to make myself one of those nifty sewing tables with the drop down machine platform and extendible cutting table etc...

| 5665 | I just went to local shops, only had to get a couple of groceries. Very bad accident at lights hmm it happened at about 12 and traffic is still being diverted and held up. took me a while to get home and i didnt need to go through lights ! coalrange1 - 2010-02-23 14:25:00 |

you do need the compartments, then they wont roll together and get tangled and so much easier for sorting colours :) coalrange1 - 2010-02-23 14:36:00 |

| 5672 | Ive got a printers tray with a collection of overseas 'cone shells' in it sits on the floor under the tv cabinet, Chockie boy has never noticed it and yet the front of it is in full view. You know whats going to happen now that ive mentioned it aye haha lol he will discover it. Yay Liz, have you got it home or on layby ? coalrange1 - 2010-02-23 16:49:00 |

| 5675 | Ooooh and how lovely, opened the box to find a card from the shop (they opened it to get the warranty forms filled out etc) with a $20 gift voucher in it :D liz_taylor - 2010-02-23 17:10:00 |

Datoofairy, this may be a good idea of Judys, some of the trays on here are only $20 you could get say 4 or 5 and get them made into a cabinet thing maybe. I will try cottons in to see how well they fit soon as i can :) coalrange1 - 2010-02-23 17:11:00 |
| 5677 | they dont fit in all that fantastic, some cottons are slightly fat, but they would fit if draws werent too tightly fitted together. each draw would hold quite a few cottons just one layer thick. coalrange1 - 2010-02-23 17:40:00 |

| 5682 | Datoofairy, a friend of mine came around this afternoon, i was telling her about your cottons. She suggested dowling, thread the cotton reels on lengths and stand one end in some sort of stand thing. that would look very arty standing in a corner and you could have it so you could get the reels off either end. coalrange1 - 2010-02-23 19:13:00 |
| 5683 | i just realised i didnt sew a stitch all day :( its all sitting here near me and i was busy all day. got alot of housework done tho, so maybe tomorrow i can sew :) coalrange1 - 2010-02-23 20:38:00 |
