    I thank the end post so that next time I click on the link on my e-mail it takes me to the last post I looked at. If I thanked everybody I would be here all day! Not that I'm not grateful for everyone's posts - they are very helpful and it's lovely to see all the makes. I really must get on and do some more sewing.:o

    Did you know there is a view first unread post button which automatically takes you to where you were last?

    I thank anyone that has commented on one of my posts, posted something I like or posted a good linkie (although sometimes I dont have time if just having a browse without logging in.)

    I always just click on the icon that takes you to the last page of the thread which is good but then still have to search to where i last read.

    Fantastic makes meggielo - you are very clever!!

    Would love a machine like yours so that I could personalise some items for my Grandchildren, but really can't justify the cost.
    Think I need to try and join a Sewing Group and see if I can find someone who has one and perhaps we could trade favours.

    Look forward to seeing more of your pictures.

    I'm looking for a fabric corner bookmark suitable for men - any suggestions please?

    Would either of these be any good?

    I might make some myself actually!

    I've just had a closer look at that first link, and there are loads of other really nice things to make - there's a backpack for a child, so I think I'll have a go at one for my DD2 for Christmas.

    Thanks justamum - will have a look at them. Perhaps if I made them in denim or something?
    Wish I could do embroidery. Would look good with their initials on.
