You Came Along, Brightened my day....

I am beyond excited.

Look what I have.

Despite having endured two years of the nastiest, bitchiest, witch as a sewing teacher - I have long yearned for a sewing machine...

When I was little, mum had an old wooden and metal Singer. The machine itself folded into the table to create a flat surface, and the metal foot pedal was permanently affixed.I loved the sensation of the pedal swinging back and forth and the hum of the needle whirring in and out the material.

After she got rid of that, she got a new electric Singer... I used it sparingly - typically because it was during the Sewing Lesson's time.

Over the last few years, I have contemplated a machine, considered different models, reviewed various customer opinions, thought about, but typically left it. However this month, I decided the time was right.

It arrived this morning, just as I left work; i took this to be a good sign...

But it wasn't.

Then tonight when I came in; I loaded a spool, threaded the needle and practised some stitches. Uber excited, Loads of different types of stitches. My own little light... Amma going make some funky, funky stuff.

Once I've worked out how to. That witch never taught me anything.
