New Sewing Machine

As I have complained over and over again about my machine and its lack of function I have been disenchanted with sewing. A good friend lent me her very wonderful machine. It was fantastic but also fantasy. It was not mine nor was it my level, and without instructions I was never going to be able to use it to its full potential.
With luck, positive instead of my usual bad, my son's school was hosting a benefit auction and on its list was a sewing machine. Probably not the usual high attention auction item, I was enchanted. I ended up getting a machine that matched my level, my needs and my price point. A nice bonus being that the money went to my son's school.
This week I have been able to play with my machine, crank out new items and come up with more. I love my that this sewing machine does what it is supposed to, that it is quietish, and that I don't need to fight with it or trick it to do its regular functions. I am hoping this third machine is a charm. And it is all mine!
