When I was growing up my Mom and Grandma sewed everything. For some reason I just wasn't interested. I did learn to crochet and embroider a bit. Nothing elaborate. My thing was cooking, baking,crafts,gardening, painting and puttering in my home. After I was married my Mom made all the curtains for the house we had built. In later years when Dad passed away and she came to live with us she still did the sewing. I guess you would call this an impulse buy. I saw this machine sitting on the shelf and thought to myself. I've gotten away with it for many years maybe I should learn. I didn't exactly get to much support from my family. My daughter said,bring it back Mom I'll do the sewing. My son said throw it in the back of the truck and I'll drive you to the store so you can return it. The hubby grunted and asked what it costs. Now I am determined as ever. It comes with a CD and found the model on YouTube. Between the two I hopefully will be able to at least fill the bobbin by this weekend. I might try a pillow case as my first project. Mom is turning over in her grave.
