it came yesterday. the epic purchase. can you spy it under the little table?
it's a sewing machine!
and a whole new world for me. where it will take me, nobody knows. as of right now i am not a sewer, but up until now i've never had the means to be. seeing as how the door of opportunity was just flung wide open, maybe i will become one. supposedly these computerized machines make it super easy. we'll see about that. but please be patient with me, we probably won't see my first project popping up any day now. i don't even own any thread or fabric! but i'm going to learn to sew, i hope. and i hope i end up loving it.
ps. and guess who is going to teach me.. grant. i know, right? he's so cool.

I am so excited for you! I know I've gotten hours of use out of mine (and I can't read a sewing pattern to save my life), so you, Miss Creative, will have so much fun!!! Congrats! :)
yay! you're gonna love it and become addicted : ) wish we lived closer to have sewing parties!
Ooooo...nice! I've heard that brother machines are great! My grandma has one that has lasted for years and years and years. I look forward to seeing your projects.
Ooh ooh, how fun! I love mine, though I'm not super great at using it. But I do make a mean pillowcase. :)

sewing is soo fun! And I am totally impressed that Grant is the one that will be teaching you!! AWESOME
SOOOOO exciting! You will soon discover (if you haven't already) the enormous world of craft/sewing blogs and tons of FREE patterns and tutorials for making adorable stuff online! I'm addicted to sewing for sure and have only been at it for a few years! Have fun learning:)
Yay! You're going to love it. Don't start with clothes - choose something a bit simpler, like a little purse or something.
Your husband knows how to sew? That is awesome. I hope you end up using yours. I always have projects shoved in the back of my mind to do, but somehow never get around to doing them. It's very fun and relaxing though.
Summer, you could say-"sew what?"
Oh, Summer- I am so excited for you! What fun you will have! If you have not discovered it all ready, here is a fun site...lots of links to cute tutorials and projects (some pretty simple ones, too!)
