My wife has a Singer Quantum XL-6000 embroidery machine...but I don't even know how to turn it on :-[
 My sister is a chrotcheting machine and when 8 or 10 she taught me how.  I forgot how, but I think I could pick it up pretty quick again.

 Nothin wrong with a man knowing how to do things for himself ;)

that's awesome Sterling!  My grandmother taught me how to crochet when I was little, I used to be a crocheting machine.  Tried to pick it back up a few years ago and everything I tried to make curled up as it got bigger, LoL!  I don't remember how to make stuff stay flat.  :)

thanx all for the great coments and the trick is to keep every stitch the same tightness to keep it from curling my stuff still curls also but its getting better hehe
