My hubby got me my FIRST BRAND NEW SEWING MACHINE!!! Isn't he just the BEST!! I am so excited!!! So I played a lot! but didn't finish anything!
I did start a new project! It's a quilt for the doorway at our camp that goes to the upstairs which we think will help keep the heat downstairs... but with all the knot holes in the wooden floor/ceiling it may be more of a decoration then a practical heat saver - we'll see :) Either way here's the first completed block.
I'm using the Hard Candy collection again with a single background fabric.
I am taking a few minutes to realize how very lucky I am!!
Wishing you all a Happy and Healthy Thanksgiving!

WOOHOO! Is that a new Pfaff? Very cool! Love your new quilt (I'm a sucker for bright colors)!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
What an awesome present! :)
Love the jewel box blocks - so bright and pretty!
What a fun looking quilt. The bright colors are so cheery they'll have to warm you up!
Congrats on the new machine.
Congrats on a new sewing machine! I do hope someday to have a much fancier one. My husband bought mine 3 Black Friday's ago for $60 at Wal Mart. It seems to still be going strong for a cheap machine though. I'm very thankful to have it as I had been cutting and ironing at sewing club for months before actually having my own machine.
What a beautiful new machine... woo hoo!!!!!
