Alright, I've been promising my girl Nancy pics of my new baby! Yep, about a month ago (maybe I'm not real sure) my sewing machine decided to act up on me. I had enough of it! I had been thinking for about a year about investing into a new machine but since my current one was okay, I kept putting it off. However, when she decided to give me fits while in the middle of an important sewing project, I threw my hands up and said..ENOUGH! I got super lucky and was able to score an amazing deal on my new baby, a Janome Memory Craft 6600!!! Good Lord about, this machine freakin' ROCKS!!!! I was able to finish off my project and but for having to thread and wind a bobbin, I swear this baby all but sews on its own!! So, here ya go Nancy, I've been promising you pics...here ya go! With said project on it as well!!
I can't scream loud enough at how awesome this machine is! Automatic needle threader, automatic thread cutter....oodles of embroidery patterns at my disposal....it's SWEET! I have already become quite the fabric junkie...you should see the fat quarter bundle I just scored from Acorn Quilt & Gift Company...talk about yummy fabrics...just waiting to begin being made into yet another quilt! Moda...can I just say how much I love Moda fabrics! Ah, once the holidays are over that new baby of mine will be getting quite the workout!
Alright, that's about it for me....gonna go throw a movie on the dvd player and chillax. It's a grey and gloomy Sunday here in Chicago but I had a good morning hanging with the girl at Starbucks....all decked out in my new Uggs and feeling very warm and sassy! Hope ya'll have a good week...how bout it, less then two weeks until Christmas...ARGH!! Stop the machine, I need to get off...it's coming way to fast....
Until next time,
Blessings!
