Isn't she pretty?! The FedEx guy dropped her off my house yesterday. Well I have been saving up for this for a long time, thanks to all the enablers over on the Cricut MBs. Some of you may already know that I made a pledge on the CC MB to Use My Stash and I have been pretty good at curbing my craft spending to things I needed for a particular project instead of buying on impulse - fell off the wagon :) a couple of times but overall I did pretty good (I think). Special thanks goes to MamaC aka Carolyn for starting the thread. The pledge ended at the end of November. I used the money I saved to splurge on a mini sewing machine that a lot of crafters have been raving about. I love love love the look of stitches on cards, home decor projects and LOs! I can't believe how tiny and lightweight this little baby is!
This is a sample of the stitching I was practicing on 2 pieces of scrap cardstock.
Well I'm off to sew something - have a wonderful Wednesday everyone!
