I know when I packed up to move states that it was overwhelming all the stuff I had to pack quilt wise and I shared some w/ others...got tired of packing.<br />A friend of mine went to a neighborhood yard sale that her husband begged her not to as she had so much. A neighbor had died and the aunt was selling all the stuff....she bought a featherweight and the "card table" that went with it acc to the aunt......for FORTY bucks.....I dream of sales like that but have never run into one.

I also have a 185j. Because it is so heavy I thought of it as a man and named him Shrek. You know tuff and sweet at the same time.

I think it will look great with the border finishing off the pinwheels on the edges. I think you scored big with your little purchases. That bear is adorable and the machine well... it's a Singer.
