The Gammill has landed!

Leslie (lovingly known as 'Attila the Quilter') has looked forward to the arrival of her Gammill quilting machine since Christmas - well she's actually looked forward to it for longer than that, but it was her Christmas present and since then she's been pretty worked up over its arrival. Just after Christmas she and Rick reworked her craft room - (tore out some wall sections, added some cabinets, etc.) in preparation for the new addition to the family - almost sounds like a baby right? It might as well be - it takes up more room and Leslie has already spent more time with it than with any of the rest of us. Were it not for Richard's farewell this coming Sunday we're pretty sure she'd be down there with the baby right now!
After Leslie gets comfortable with the machine she'll begin stitching quilts for others under the name of her new business, Signature Quilting - check out her web site at http://www.signaturequilting.com/ - you can also find her at http://www.attilathequilter.com/ - no kidding!

And if you come to the house and nobody answers the door - you might just want to tap on the basement window at the front of the house - that's the baby's room and she may be in there quietly stitching away.
