A post of random things
2. Last Saturday I went and looked at sewing machines with my friend Krista. I didn't actually test any (I'm doing that this Saturday), but I gathered information on the machines I was interested in. I thought that if I tested one and loved it, I might end up leaving with it. I know that this is a big decision and don't want to rush things!
So far I am leaning towards the Pfaff pictured above. I like the features and the price. My grandma and my new grandma (Luke's step mom's mom), Vicki, both use Pfaff machines. Vicki and I were talking about sewing machines on Christmas Eve and she got me pumped on Pfaffs! Haha :) I still need to test out the machine, so it's not a done deal yet.
And THANK YOU to everyone that gave me tips and input on my last post. You are all talented ladies and I value your input so much, thank you thank you thank you!
3. Here is a quick photo recap of what I did to celebrate Christmas this year. The photo above is of me and some of my favorite girlfriends at Hearst Castle. I know, I just went to Hearst Castle a couple of months ago. What can I say, I'm obsessed!! We went on a night tour and got to see all the beautiful holiday decorations. If you aren't burned out on my Hearst Castle posts, then I will do another blog entry with some of the photos I took :)

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday!

Hello, new follower here! I just had to comment because my name is Noelle and my husband's name is David. Creeeeeepy!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a great Christmas!
haha that's so funny!
DeleteHearst castle during Christmas is the best thing ever! I want to take my daughter, but my husband seriously hates Christmas. The day after Christmas this year, he was singing and changing words of Christmas songs. I would put some examples up, but I might offend :P We call him the Grinch.
ReplyDeleteNext year I'll go with you!
Deletemore Hearst Castle!! :)
ReplyDeleteThat Pfaff looks pretty fantastic. Can't wait to see what you decide to get!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear how you like the class. That sewing machine looks pretty awesome! I've heard a lot of good things about that brand. And yes I would love to see more of the Hearst Castle!!
ReplyDeleteI have a Pfaff Tiptronic - I have had it for about 8 years and it is a great machine. I sometimes have a little issue with reverse stitch (refusing to reverse) and the guy that services my machine says that it is due to lint build up . . . I am sure there is a message there somewhere!
ReplyDeleteI also have the pants fitting class from Craftsy (the pattern arrived just before Christmas) so I may tackle them next week - I look forward to hearing about your progress!
How long did it take for your pattern to show up? Mine still hasn't arrived :(
DeleteI am also in the market for a new machine - with all the brands and options it is almost an overwhelming task. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteIt is SO overwhelming!!!!
DeleteOh yay, I'm so excited to see which machine you end up with! So fun!
ReplyDeleteyou are so lucky getting a new machine! And the craftsy class sounds great
