The driver that was delivering George arrived at about 11:25. I had the sister of one of my sewing students tell him I would be out in a few mintues. We had to work pretty fast because the afternoon session of Sewing Camps starts at 12:30. Here is a pictures of the table and George in the back right hand corner of the truck.

Taking George to the back.
We had to take the door off to get the crate (with the table) into my studio.
Here is George coming down the stairs. I am so thankful that the driver offered to help me get George into my studio. I am not sure what I would have done. I am sure that I would have taken the table out of the crate before bring it inside.
We got the crate with the table into my studio just in time for the afternoon session of sewing camp. Cassie suggest that we cover the crate with a table cloth to keep from getting splinters.
Camp is over and it’s time to start taking the crate apart. At first I thought is was put together with nails, so I got out the crowbar, but as it turned out they used screws. It was much easier getting the crate apart because of that.
Here I am taking the screws out.
The sides and top of the crate have been removed.
Wroking on getting the sewing table off the bottom of the crate.

Pictures of some of the odds and ends that came with the George machine.
Here is George getting his first look of his new home.
Made the needed adjustments and have the plexi-glass around George.
My first test piece. I think I am really going to like machine quitling on George. Guess I’ll put the samples aside and quilt my Morning (aka Mouring) Quilt. Check back tommorow to see how it goes.
Emily’s already trying to call “dips” on George. I told her she should learn to type before she gets to use him!
Happy Dancing with you! Looks great in that space. Can’t wait to see George in person.

Yeah I am soooo excited for you! (and for me to quilt my larger quilts). I can’t wait to see what you pump out with this.
