Today is the day

Well actually Christmas day was. That is when my loving husband got me something I have been asking for, well for about 2 years.

A SEWING MACHINE!!!

That's right folks, my husband of 6 years finally got me something that I have really wanted.

So the question is, Do you know how to sew? HAHAHA! Funny you should ask that cause I haven't sewn anything since Home Ec. in High School! So yeah I am going to try it out, well I have already tried it out.

The first thing I made was a mitten for Andrew. I was trying to make 2 but the first one he couldn't fit his hand in(I know big jokes), so I just used that one to see what stitches I could do. So that was my tester.

So I made another mitten. But still wouldn't fit Andrew, but hey this time it fit Adrian(pretty good).


So my third and last mitten I made, actually fit Andrew. But I didn't make a matching one. (I ran out of the fabric) So that will be have to made at a later time. lol!

Well on my third day of having my sewing machine, I decide to just up and make a tote bag. I am pretty much happy with the way it came out. I mean it isn't anything special but I am pretty sure I can use it as a library bag.

In the mist of making this tote/bag, Emma got finished with her bottle and decided she was bored in her chair. She wanted to get out. When I asked her what she was doing, this is what I got.

It melted my heart, so I stopped working.

So I have had my sewing machine for 4 days and I have made 4 different things. One of which I can use. :lol:
