DH got me an awesome Mother's Day gift!!

I was not expecting anything big, because we normally don't do anything for mother's or father's days.

BUT! He got me donuts and Starbucks for breakfast (dude knows me well. lol) and then!

He got me a sewing machine! I've been talking about teaching myself for months. I can't believe he actually listened. lol

Thats awesome! I got a sewing machine also! What kind did you get? What kind of sewing do you want to do? I'm hoping to learn how to quilt.

Nice! Sewing is fun. Unfortunately I don't always have the patience for it. I've wanted to take a tire iron to my machine before.

Singer Brilliance 6120, I think.

I would love to be able to do stuff like pillows, curtains, etc. I would also love to learn how to quilt - I've been seeing some awesome modern quilts that are gorgeous.

And, if we have another baby and it's a girl? Fuhgedaboutit. lol

you will love it! i am 2 seconds from finishing a dress for L. i got a brother super advanced one on clearance from a local place. i think my sewing machine could make a quilt for me and embroider. so far, i just use normal stitches and the zipper and button feet. ha!

I'm giddy about all the different types of stitches this thing can do. I don't even know what they're for or their functions, but they're awesome!!

Wow that is awesome! Kudos to your H!

I got a singer also. The possibilities are endless for projects for a new baby! Post your projects when you've finished Id love to see them.
