"I got so tired of all the pages I had to click on that I finally gave up. Not sure if I'm entered into the contest or not. ("

"I have both types . I use the 40 year old Bernina for free machining to take to workshops as it is light to carry. My Janome 8000 copes with heavy seams, making soft furnishings etc I love the automatic seam finishing that saves time."

"I think that I have a metal machine due to the age of it but it has plastic cams for the fancy stitches. I have had it for nearly 40 years, a Husquarva which my mom had also. Like Mother like Daughter!!!"

"Using both, but prefer the metal one seems to last longer as the wear and tear is not so bad. Plastic parts tend to damage or break too easily"

"I have several of each. Nothing beats an old metal machine and no, you don't have to oil them daily! Did your Daddy own the oil company? I bought a small plastic machine to carry to classes and retreats. Then I won a full size one with the bells and whistles. But the more features, the more there is to break or get out of adjustment. My brother recently bought his wife a new one. The plastic uptake lever broke off before we could even get it set up."

I’m a self-taught sewist, and it all began with a slip-covered card table playhouse for my daughter. I love modern quilting, playing with colorful fabric and am learning something new every day.

I’ve always been the artsy/craftsy type- you know the one that never wanted to leave the Arts and Crafts Room at camp; the one that made you the slightly wonky scarf for Christmas; the one that wrote in paint pen all over anything I could get my hands on in the 80s.

I get giddy over school supplies- new markers, pens, pencils and notebooks- oh the possibilities!

I’m still driven by the same need to create, a love of fabric and design, and the thrill that comes from creating something beautiful from a sketch and an idea.

I’m a mother to two precious young children and wife to a super supportive husband that understands and encourages my creative pursuits. Come join me.
