If rh> you do large amounts of sewing, these gadgets are well worth the money. The one thing that has stopped me - the cone thread is not as thick - is it strong enough to hold a seam? I had heard that since sergers use so many threads together, that is why the cone thread is thinner, and it shouldn't be used on a regular sewing machine...

I will officially be moved from here the last day of March... with the new owners taking possession April 1st. Things just happened real fast over the weekend. And I for one am glad that things are finally coming to some closure. However it is not giving me that much time now to deal with many other things that are going on... Needless to say my posting here will be slim pickin's for a while but I will be checking in on things routinely. I just received word yesterday that I won the March QBE! I just received a message back from Nancy Bird that we will put the QBE on a short hiatas for March and I will choose a block for April instead so that I can get through the next couple of weeks with a little bit of sanity ... As well as March is my FFQBE month on SEW & QUILT... so my fq's can be sent to my new address or here ... I am just now . Well I have a whole lot to get going on this morning and the packing is now into high rush!!! Would you believe I am still discovering more crafting supplies around here!!!! Boxes everywhere!!!

You and me both!!!! Fortunately it is not that far from the new house. I don't know how you can stand living in boxes... all you snow bunnies for that matter! >.. All these boxes are already driving me nuts! And this week is "major" packing! The majority of my furniture will be moved over this weekend. And then I have the pleasure of finishing up things over the following week. And even now as I am trying to find things I am having a difficult time... things in boxes are just not my cup of tea ... As it has been so far I am unpacking boxes as quickly as they come in the door of the other house... and then returning the empty boxes back to this house to be refilled... but now that we are down to the wire... I am not sure if I will be able to keep up the pace! But I am gonna give it a healthy try anyway!
