My Machine

I have been scheming for a way to get my dream sewing machine ever since I took my sewing classes at BYU. That sewing lab completely spoiled me and I knew I had to have a Bernina.

Well- I have been saving since my Bank Christmas bonus right before Maggie was born- and then Christmas and birthday money for over a year. I still didn't have quite enough- but there was a great sale going on for Valentine's Day that threw in the embroidery module. I just couldn't pass it up- and Brad ordered it for me! I have the best husband ever..


So- I have been working on several projects- I cannot post pictures because a few of them have been gifts that people have not yet opened ;-). But needless to say- I have been in heaven so far this busy season because my beautiful new machine keeps me company at night!

That is awesome Ashley! I know how badly you've been wanting this machine. I also am so impressed at how much you love to sew. I am so so bad at it! I can't wait to see pictures of what you've done so far.
