No longer my nemesis!

I haven't posted in awhile since all of my sewing has been done in class on our robes.  But, today I have passed a milestone....I have taken my sewing machine out of the box & set it up!!  I am SO excited about this!  I intended to work on my robe a little, but I spent my time setting up the machine, looking at all of the parts that came with it, and reading the manual.  I guess the guest bedroom will double as a sewing room for now.  We already had some thread, a seam ripper, various buttons and needles from random places.  I will add to my sewing cache as needed; I don't want to jump in guns blazing and spend a ridiculous amount of money on things that I might not need.  For now, I'm happy to be doing test stitches on scrap fabric with my own machine!

Nemesis no more!
