A New Machine July 29, 2007

Ok, so here is the problem with those FREE classes. I went to one today to learn how to make this "quick and easy" heirloom bag. It turned out it was really a sales pitch for the new Designer SE that was on sale. I had a mantra all the way through the class. It went something like this: "I will not fall for the gimmick, I will not buy a new sewing machine, I love my sewing machine, I don't need another machine, it doesn't matter how good the deal is, I wouldn't take it if it was free". Well, you probably get where this is going right! For the record though, I want to be clear that I did leave the class without purchasing a new Designer SE. It was the next day when all of my girlfriends came over to make fabric postcards. I just happened to run out of glue and we just had to go back to THAT store to get some. You know, if I was going to be in the area for a $0.99 glue bottle, why not pick up a new $5000 machine right. It made total sense at the time. I am the never regretful owner of a new Husqvarna Designer SE. Sadly, of it's many wonderful feature the two that sold me were the light (yes the light) and the ability to switch between sewing and embroidery without taking the machine apart. Happy Pictures Later!
