We got to babysit our grandson Neal in December, at their home in Philly, while his parents attended a Christmas party.
This little man is such a joy to be around!
It's so fun to see the world through his exploring eyes, as he figures things out.
On Christmas morning, I was very surprised when my DH gave me a new Bernina!!
I had told him to let me know when he was gonna finally retire, so I could get a new machine before he did. My Artista 640 was 16 years old! Wow! Time flies!! It is a great machine, but wanted some new features like the even-feed foot!
So, my DH bought it secretly before Thanksgiving during the "get-a-free-sewing-cabinet-deal" was going on!! Smart man!! I'm still waiting to hear when the new cabinet will be delivered, so for now it is sitting atop my old sewing table...waaaay too big for that space. I've had to figure out how to rearrange my little sewing room to accommodate the newer larger cabinet. I had to move my Handiquilter Sweet Sixteen Sit-down machine out to another room and rearrange some other furniture. When the new cabinet comes in, and everything is resettled, I'll take lots of pix and do a new sewing room reveal post!!
I made my dear Mother a walker bag for Christmas, so she can keep needed items close at hand.
Her walker is hot pink, so I thought these fabrics would be perfect!!
I'm happy to say, she loves it!! Yay!!
I'm working on a few projects, and will write about them when they are done!!
Yogi and I would love to know what have you been up to in this brand new year!
Any big resolutions or plans or goals?
