lizziesgirl Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 I am so excited! I got the call from the freight company and my Millineum will be here Tuesday. Today is our 21st anniversary, what a present. I chose to name her after my Mamaw (grandmother) who was my inspiration to want to quilt, so Ms Lizzie she will be. I had a Grace frame with a Janome that I thought would be enough to do customers quilts, but in our area no one does free motion and I do. I have 21 customer quilts and 11 of my own waiting to be done and my customers are so excited for me they are willing to wait because I sold the Grace/Janome already. DeLoa Jones is awesome. I had a class with her and she will come Wednesday to set up the machine and get me started. I plan on taking more classes from her, the 2 1/2 hr drive is worth it. Also the advice that I get from reading the chat is beyond helpful. Thank you all so very much and I am sure that you will be hearing more from me. I look forward to being able to show my first quilt on Ms Lizzie. After the practice piece of course. Thanks for letting me brag, its so cool.

Guest LA Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Cool Sheryl! :cool: Isn?t it exciting having dreams come true? I love the name, what an honor to your Grandmother!
