Date: 1/18/08 0:31 AM Maybe this is one of those things that should be pinned because there are lots of people interested in it? ------

Date: 1/18/08 2:19 PM Mary, I definitely think it should be pinned. How do we make that happen? ------

Date: 1/18/08 2:29 PM Looks great and similar to the very useful info included in the Bernina Feetures books. Funny thing, I called them recently about a serger table and they were very helpful on the phone. They have a brick & mortar store in the Temecula area (I think). ------
