Handicaped Homemaker

So……I have finally decided to bite the bullet and buy my own sewing machine. Yes, it’s true. For those that know me you may ask, as did my husband – “Why? You don’t sew!” Well this is true to some extent, but I have been giving it a go on my levi quilts and baby blankets. More later on just how I came to be somewhat of a levi quilt maker………never and I say NEVER tell me that I can’t do something! LOL oh ‘the girls’ know what I’m talking about!!

This is the picture of the machine I want to put on layaway at JoAnne’s (yes the very store I swore NEVER to enter again). Perhaps I’ll be safe as long as I don’t ask for cotton, coTTon COTTON!  AAAAAAH don’t get me started.

Anyway, if there is anybody out there even reading my blog please post a comment or email me any suggestions. Please note I went with this machine for two reasons. They said it had a ‘non jamming’ bobbin and only 8 stitches to choose from. I’m a person of very limited abilities in the homemaking area…….I try, really I do. My husband refers to me as his Domestic Goddess but I don’t think we’re fooling anyone!! LOL

I’m sure this machine does a few more things but I was sold on the bobbin’ hype. What say ye out there?

It’s the Viking Emerald 116 or 118. Thanks!
