I was flirting with a new machine for a couple of weeks but decided that a sewing machine that cost the same as a recent model low mileage car might not be the best choice when I will soon have 2 kids in college.... maybe some day.

I absolutely LOVE it. And who knew George Clooney could act? I also think Holly Hunter is the cutest little firecracker. We need to see more of her.<br /><br />Lots of people have ultra-sounds and find out what their baby is going to be and name them several months before the birth, so I don't see anything wrong with naming your machine before you get it. It is just good planning.<br /><br />Also, I didn't know that your other machines had names. How clever. Mine is Grace because that's the name she came with, but you already know that. She does automatic button holes (as in, one touch and so amazing it's like magic!) and has a blanket stitch. But I'd really like to trade up for her big sister, Elizabeth. You know. Because.<br /><br />I miss reading your blog. I'd love to scroll backwards and see what else I've missed, but it just occurred to me that no one and nothing is demanding my attention and I have some blogging business of my own to attend to.<br /><br />Still working on the lily blocks. I wanted to get the lot of them done over Thanksgiving. And then when chores and all the other stuff I've been not doing got in the way, I hoped for 8 of the 11. And then when more chores and stuff I've been neglecting got in the way, I was hoping for 6. I got 3 done. And one of those was already about half-way put together. Mine are kind of wavy in the middle. Suggestions?<br /><br />Thanks for the fun post.<br /><br />xo -EElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980461113595763030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4344904739833956385.post-80517610805372258882014-12-03T20:24:18.617-06:002014-12-03T20:24:18.617-06:00When I saw the name Oh Brother, I immediately thou...When I saw the name Oh Brother, I immediately thought of the movie and George Clooney!<br /><br />I hope your new Brother is going to be wonderful!Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07418668511495166842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4344904739833956385.post-41931783247591203582014-12-02T07:13:11.356-06:002014-12-02T07:13:11.356-06:00I need a new machine.

Do you know what kind of bobbins it uses? My newer Brother uses different bobbins than the older one.
