Today I feel as though I was very productive. It started with the library, I decided getting a little inspiration always helps. While there I was lucky enough to find a Bible of sorts... Martha Stewarts Encyclopedia of Sewing and Fabric Crafts, I was feeling pumped after that.
After such a rush I decided I needed to buy a sewing machine. You could say I am feeling inspired. I would be lying if I hadn't already been feeling an itch to buy a sewing machine, but seeing martha's great ideas just gave me a push. So I went to wal-mart after reading some reviews on a Brother sewing machine they had there for $80. I was sold. I had $20 bucks left on a Visa gift card that I used and now I can say I am a proud owner of a sewing machine. YAY! Here is a picture -
Then I needed to go to Joann's Fabric for a little more inspiration. Note to all: Saturday afternoon is not the ideal time to go to that store. I should have known with all of the minivans that scattered the parking lot but whew, it was a bit overwhelming. I was not productive and I got little to no inspiration. Oh well. I did pick up some reminants that I'm hoping I can make something cool for my boyfriends niece. I'll post when/if it turns out. Either way, what's the fun in only seeing perfect products right??
When I finally got home I realized my new sewing machine comes with a DVD tutorial. Lucky Me!! Time to learn...
What's the next sewing project?
