    Well, I just got home from my parents house, so here are some pics of my new machine, being inspected of course by the quality control officers (Kitchen and Satchmo. I think my excitement has rubbed off on them as they are currently chasing each other round, chasing the spools of thread that are on he floor (the machine came with free threads - LOADS of them, and a set of scissors nd a tape measure and some bobbins and some needles.

    I have been munching away on my Wheat Thns and am saving the Cheetohs for a night in with a DVD later this week - THANKS KATHY!
    Enjoy the pics, I am tired from all the excitement, am off to bed soon! I will be playing with my new machine tomorrow night when I am fresh!

    Oooh, whats this then?

    I agree with Jim'sGem.

    Your life will have less stress if you have a machine that works. If mine started to act up, I would probably be saying words a lady should not say.
