A new project and some blocks...




I started these with my old machine, and excited to now be sewing with the new machine! It's making my sewing life so much easier...

The New Machine!!!

The Janome DC2011 - still in the box, sitting on the table. I'm too scared to open it! It came with 17 free lessons or something like that, so eventually I'll know my way around it. I'm very excited!

Janome 7330


So, I have an "old" Brother sewing machine and it's been acting very wonky for a while, so today when the fabric I was working with wouldn't catch on the feeder and the foot lever wouldn't go all the way up, I finally took it to a Vac and Sew shop... In the 10 years I've had it, it has never been serviced.... Anyway, the nice lady at the shop estimated it would be about $120 to have it fixed, but advised that I find a nice way to dispose of the machine instead... I've wanted a new machine for a while, so she showed me what she had for sale. This Janome is what I/m thinking of. Any thoughts??
