This is my loyal and trusty 'Nina. She's been with me quite a while. I was a little worried that all of the machine quilting on my tote bags and quilts would wear her out. So she will now only be used for some piecing and decorative stitching. I will be using my new Juki TL98Q for all of my machine quilting. I got it yesterday and so far I think I like it. It's a whole lot faster than my 'Nina. I'm sure I'll get used to it. I remember being a little intimidated by my 'Nina because she is computerized. Now we're the best of friends.
Have a great weekend and do some quilting!

Gorgeous colours in your blocks and I love the rosette in the middle. I'm fairly new to quilting and so I appreciate most things, which appear new to me.
Very nice sewing machines. I have two Singers and love that one of them has a needle threader on it.
Blessings, Star
Congrats on the new machine. You will love that extra throat space for quilting.
Its a nice surprise when we run across a forgotten project. Sometimes we get tired of a quilt before its finished and setting it aside for a while helps us remember why we liked it in the first place. It will make a really cute quilt!
Hi Char, Nice to see what you are doing. Interesting too to see your new machine. I have a Bernina 440 and I really love it now...hated it at first. What made you choose the Juki? I dont think I have heard much of them is Oz. Loved your blog ♥ Block on your Juki is lovely.
I have the Babylock which is very similar to the Juki and I love it. More room for the quilt, faster speed, wonderful straight stitch.
