My New Best Friend


I am the proud owner of Beauty.

At first I was filled with trepidation--and I didn't even take Beauty out of the box.

Then, I went to class.

I got Beauty humming....

I threaded, I stitched, I hemmed,

and we became acquainted.

We are now BFF.

I am in heaven.

Beauty is smooth and slick.

Visions of things we can create together

are dancing in my head.

How could I pass up the huge sale happening at Joann Fabrics ...

thread (50% off)...

( just love the colors)

patterns (99 cents--how can you go wrong there?)

and fabrics (50% off the red tags)...

Do you think I need any more fabric? patterns?

Do you think I have gone mad?

You don't have to answer that.

We are ready to rumble and roll, just Beauty and me--

P. S. I can't wait to show you my entire sewing room/corner....stay tuned....

Oh WOW I can't wait! I think I know which room it is in...

PS I'm glad you name your machines like I do. :)

So Natalie, notice the four cones of pink thread--those are for YOU! Actually for your wee little one in the oven. Do you have a name yet?

Oh if only I'd learned how to sew while still under my mom's roof. Is it too late? I love seeing all that thread!

Ahh! It looks like Beauty has a beautiful room of her own! I'm excited to see all of the neat things you and Beauty create!

I can imagine the "whirr" sound of the machine as you create! I remember when I got my first serging machine. I made Halloween costumes for my whole neighborhood one year. Don't wait Karen . . . CREATE!!!
