My New Toy

So moving to Madison has been quite an adjustment for me. It is really beautiful here but I no longer have a job to occupy my time. Sure I still work about 15 hours a week for Heritage Makers, still doing what I used to do just at a scaled down version. I love that I am still able to work for them. I love love LOVE everyone there! They have had such a huge impact on me. Especially Bryndi and Patti, so I was super grateful that Patti allowed me to stay on.

Ok, so back to time. Once I put in my hours at work, I get ready for the day... if I get ready for the day. I usually watch shows and movies. I know what you're thinking, what a tough life, and I'm not complaining, but once you run out of shows and movies, it gets SUPER boring.  I mean, I even resorted to broaden my show list to include Teen Mom, The Real Housewives of Orange County, and many many more shows that I am not proud of. *sigh*

In order to occupy my time, my friend Katie and I have decided to craft. We found all the 40% off coupons we could to Hobby Lobby and Michael's and went shopping. So far the craft number is up to 2. The BYU wreath, and a Paper Book Flower Wreath (pictures to come.)  Well I have really really really wanted a sewing machine for a long time. It just never made any sense to get one since I had school or a job. Well now that i dont have that, I got out my puppy dog eyes and approached the husband :)

HE GOT ME A SEWING MACHINE!!!

 

Isn't it beautiful? It is the Brother CP 7500 and it will be here Wednesday. I have started making a list of all the projects that will now occupy my time. The List includes:

Finishing Baby Quilt (not an announcment)

Pillows

Table Runner

Placemats

and then I ran out of ideas. So- if you have some ideas on what I could do with my new sewing machine i would LOVE to hear from you.
