"Separate professional quilters" ... I've often thought that quilt shows should employ the golf standard .... Have a Masters category ... Those wonderful Master quilters would then have their own category or show

[ISO Undeniably Crazy by Buggy Barn]

I am in search of the Undeniably Crazy Quilt book by Buggy Barn.  If you have a copy I could buy that would be great.  If you have a copy that I can borrow that would also be great.

Thanks in advance!

[Snappers, Grips or Zippers?]

I was beginning to think I was the only one out here who uses zippers!  I love them.  I sit and "listen" to a tv program while pinning the backing to the zippers.  I float my tops so don't use that third zipper.  Haven't really had a lot of problem with getting stuck by a pin ... knock on wood ... love being able to remove quilt when I need to work on a "rush" job.

[What to think about in deciding between machines?]

I'm 5"3.5" on a good day and I have a 2009 Millennium and absolutely love it.  On carpeted floor... 14' table.  I have never ever regretted this decision. I have no difficulty doing whatever I want to do with this machine.  I'm doing a lot of custom right now ... and have no difficulty with the large throat space.  In fact, glad to have it so I can start and finish most blocks within the space  without having to move the quilt back and forth. Go for the Millie!

[Glide thread vs Superior]

I use the two brands a lot. For those quilts that want/need a little pizazz or shot of color, I use the Magna-Glide. For those quilts that call for a more traditional look, I use the Superior SoFine. I don't think i'd give up either one. My machine loves both and that's what clinches the deal for me. No tension hassles with either one.

[Favorite/Best Sewing Table??]

early on I decided I wanted to spend $$$$ on a cutting table ... i was hating cutting fabric at not-the-right height and a good cutting table was my priority. So Mr. Santa brought me one several Christmas's ago. So cutting table was main priority and my sewing table is just a 6-7 foot long basic table with my two Featherweights on it. I have plenty of room and I use every bit of it. And since I'm sitting, it seems the height is OK for me. One of these days, though, Mr. Dancing Bear will surprize me with a REAL sewing table! Hope it is BIG with plenty of room on top for all my 'stuff' ... ha! Bear ... stuff ... but I am not a stuffy bear! I dance, I twirl, I waltz, I glide ... and I have a wonderful time with my New Toy Max! Take a bow ... and exit.
