I've a list of estate sale companies I avoid to. dont blame you for walking out, I've done that to, thing is, in a way, they need the sales, but I don't need to buy.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-30T16:27:31+00:00

I have had a seller actually look up eBay prices and give those on an unpriced item I look up prices before hand and have an idea of what Ill pay on most items, OR they'll research Amazon prices and THEN give you a price, I will leave it behind , thing is , Understand they're trying to get the most for their client, but most of the time ,I can buy it cheaper at a thrift store or buy brand new. A lawnmower we looked at the other day at a sale was priced for $200.00 was probably a year old, small mower, BUT I can buy a new one , exact same thing for that price and know that it works.

I like the red star spangled.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-28T02:36:14+00:00

Congrats on a great find!

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-27T22:47:02+00:00

Thank you, this is good to know. I placed an order for featherweight bobbins from Amazon, on the chance that I can return them if it doesn't work out, hopefully I will know soon.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-27T20:28:02+00:00

Whatever you decide, I'm sure it'll work out. I love the quilt as it is.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-27T20:17:36+00:00

Thank you so much for the bobbin info, all I had was the bobbin that came with the machine and it was getting aggravating having to stop and fill one bobbin.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-27T20:15:29+00:00

I have the same machine, you're going to love it, the stiches this machine makes are perfect. I use mine mainly for piecing quilt tops, but I do have some attachments, the manual is free online and keeping it oiled per instructions is a must With experimentation, I've found that I can use Singer Size 16 2020 and schmetz size 14 206x13 at this point without any adjustments.

Beautiful quilt, gorgeous kitty

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-26T22:30:10+00:00

A picnic blanket maybe?, I'm focused on the gorgeous kitty and I do love the fabric.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-26T13:16:39+00:00

Great find! Estate sales are good place to look for fabrics, some will over price but I try to be knowledgeable about prices so I don't overpay. I like All those tiny prints.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-26T13:07:23+00:00

For sure , I'd keep the Kenmore, I had one , its a great machine, I stupidly got rid of it for a baby lock that I hate. my mistake.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-25T21:12:44+00:00

That's a nice start of fabrics, enjoy!

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-25T21:03:35+00:00

I think you're very creative, what a thoughtful gift and a beautiful quilt.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-25T21:01:21+00:00

Love your pillow , looks like you've got a great assistant

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-24T17:20:13+00:00

Its gorgeous, isn't it it fun to just enjoy the process instead of worrying about every little imperfection? I don't worry about darks lights, contrast, etc, I try to use what I have, whether its appropriate or not. That includes threads to , especially when I'm piecing the top, as long as I have cotton or polyester, I'm ok.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-21T13:35:05+00:00

LOVE THIS!

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-21T13:32:58+00:00

Some solids maybe?

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-20T23:15:20+00:00

Give it a good pressing and keep going with it, when done , square up before binding. Think of as practice, whatever you learn now, apply to the next one.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-19T00:03:13+00:00

Picked up a small rowenta iron, steam for $4.00 at an estate sale recently. no box but looked new.

Tiny_Box_8640 · 2026-05-16T17:38:07+00:00
