Thank you!

Thank you all for your comments and compliments on my latest sundress. You all are so kind!

Nora asked what the pink strip is on my sewing machine in one of the photos at the end of the last post . It's a low tack fluorescent tape that I use for a seam guide. In this photo, it is set at 5/8 inch but I am stitching a 3/8 inch seam and am therefore ignoring it. I guess I was too lazy to move it over!
It's Omnigrid Glow-Line Tape:


And here is its description:


A transparent and fluorescent tape for highlighting lines and shapes on rulers. Glow-Line is low tack, so it will not leave any residue on rulers. Three colors- pink orange and yellow- are packaged together in 1/4" x 21 yard rolls. Glow-Line makes it easy to find measurements and shapes especially when rotary cutting repetitive pieces.


It is available online and at a lot of shops and stores that sell quilting supplies.

Thanks so much for that info. I'll start my search for it. Sure beats
other tapes that gum up the plate. Nora
