Reality is setting in. Sundance is BIG, really big! She won't be ignored, or put off. She wants to quilt. I want to let her! I brewed a larger than normal pot of coffee this morning and sat down with the manual; let the lessons begin! This is the hardest part... all I want to do is make a "sandwich" and practice right away, but I'm well aware that time spent learning about, and getting to know, the machine NOW will be well worth it in the long run. Plus, there are important things to locate, starting with the on/off switch! There's also a DVD to watch: "Maintenance Guide and Getting To Know Your Machine". Fun stuff! So, it's home schooling day at Chez Goodneedle, wish me luck!2. Go to bed on time.
Life is Good!

If anyone can master home schooling, it's you! And I bet you won't be counting the minutes till recess!
"Go to bed on time"...wish I knew what time that was....
I bet by the end of the day you will have it all figured out and quilting away.
Oh, how exciting! I, like you, would want to plunge right in. I admire your self restraint!
n, np
Home Schooling...at least you're not forgetting "SOCIALIZATION!"
Always in Bed on Time Love, *karendainne.
I bet DH wants to see this baby run too...it looks like a power tool he might have in the workshop. WAY COOL!!
Don't overload your brain and remember to take some stretching breaks!
Thinking of you today.
Enjoy the entire process . . . you never know what you will learn about Sundance (and you, too *s*)
You are a better woman than I! I did review the maintenance CD and then it was off to the races. Didn't even load a practice sandwich. I threw a lap size quilt on and meandered the whole thing. It was wonderful!!
Fun today, I can just see you curled up in a nice comfortable chair, coffee in one hand and the manual in the other.Remember to take a break every now and again and let what you have learned "sink in"............
Have a great day......... J
Aren't you just TOO excited?!?! Now I know why you aren't going to the mountain retreat...wedding, SURE, uh huh...you don't want to leave your new baby!! haha! Congrats on this new aquisition...if you need anything to practice on just let me know!
"Go to bed on time"...I knew I had something wrong...I thiought it was "Go to bed SOMETIME"!!
Good luck! Take it slow and try not to get overwhelmed. Remember, this should be FUN, not work.
Don't forget to sleep tonight. It will come to you, the hows, whats, whens. Practice makes perfect. I know you can and will do it. This time next week, you will be an ole' pro!
I am so excited for me. Just remember, little steps to learning....well that's what my mom use to say :-)!! You will be quilting up a storm in no time.
