I am a very new quilter. The first thing I ever made was a bedspread for my daughter when she went from the crib to a big girl bed. I quilted the top and then had a ruffle hanging down over the side. This was approximately 25 years ago! I remember having the fabric laid out across the floor trying to figure out how to do what I had pictured in my head. I have done a lot of sewing since then though – I am always sewing something. Dolls, pillows, and various other things. I have also been doing a lot of hand embroidery work. Recently though, I decided I wanted to really get into quilting, and it has since become a sort of therapy for me while I’m working on a project. I started by doing lots of reading and looking at various quilting websites. I have entered a few contests along the way, including one put on by National Quilters Circle giving away the AccuQuilt GoQube Mix and Match 12” Block. But when I received an email telling me that I won… I couldn’t believe it! I never win anything – I usually don’t have that kind of luck! Things like this just don’t happen to me… until now! My mother found a table runner she wants, so that will be my first project with my new prize! – Kathy S. Thanks again to Kathy for sharing with us! Want to be considered for a Meet a Member feature?

Does anyone have a Pfaff 620 machine? I need the dimentions so I can see if it will fit in my custome sewing table. Thanks in advance for your help.
