I had such a good responce from posting some of the quilts from yesterdays show I've decided to share some more with you.

This one is called Beckys dresses and is by Rosalind Gregory

  7. I visited your blog because I was searching for people who have a Pffaf Quilt Expression 4. Are you happy with yours? Have you used it much for free motion quilting? I have had mine for about 2 years and I have started having trouble with it shredding the top thread when I go to free motion quilt backwards, that is pulling the quilt towards me. Have you had any problems? Thanks in advance

  8. Glad you like Becky's dresses. Her father is particularly fond of it. The only problem is that my sisters and sister-in -law also want it 'cos their girls also wore the dresses. All the smocked dresses that I made for Becky were also worn be nieces and friends.

    I need to go back into the attic and see if I can find any more dresses for another quilt
