New sewing machine!

I don't have a Sapphire, Launie, but I'll bet you love it. I hope it knows its coming to a good home!

Congrats! Green with envy -----> me :)

You know, I think quilters appreciate their hubbies more than the average wife ... I took a 2 year hiatus from quilting (I wouldn't recommend it, LOL) and put all my fabrics in storage (protected like the Queen's jewels, of course) and hubby dear helped me sort through 12 HEAVY boxes to find what I was looking for!

When I didn't, the dear sweet man (who has no interest in the glorious tactile joys of fabric) said "Well, if you didn't find it, I guess you need to go shopping!"

Gotta love our men! :)

Even when they leave their undies behind the bathroom door (a surprise for us to find later), toss the wet towel on the floor after their shower (their helpful attempt at improving the bathroom decor), believe that the uterus is a homing device (Honey, where's my watch?), and turn the whites pink ("I just wanted to help out and do some laundry for you! I didn't know you couldn't wash whites with reds!") ... they end up being supportive in the ways that warms a quilter's heart!

AKA letting us buy quilty stuff! :)

Congratulations, and enjoy your new SM! :)

Sorry no Vikings here, but congrats on the new machine. Have fun playing with her when she gets there!!!!

Congrats, Launie! I know your new SM will have a good home.
