...prima di iniziare con la macchina
prendo un foglio, una penna e comincio disegnare il motivo...
...before starting with my sewing machine
I take a sheet of paper, a pen and begin to draw my motif...

...e disegno di continuo, senza staccare la penna dal foglio...
...and I keep on drawing, without taking my pen off the paper...

...cosi' prendo confidenza con la sequenza dei movimenti...
il foglio e' il mio quilt, la penna e' l'ago...
...so I become familiar with the sequence of movements...
sheet is my quilt and the pen is the sewing machine needle...

...e quando mi sento abbastanza sicura, abbasso il trasporto
e vado!
...and when I feel confident enough, I lower the feed dogs
and the fun begins!
provare per credere!
...it's a very effective method...
the proof of the pudding is in the eating!
Happy Quilting!
