New Equipment


Howdy Y'all
      Been a little busy, learning the dos and don'ts of being on a DT.  Nothing too much though, having a good time learning.  Additionally, I am the team lead for the Copic team (eeek), a little scary but I have a great team I am working with.  Do hop by and see what's going on at Jackson's Digital Expressions and don't forget the blog hop starts Monday, April 9th. The team is working really hard make sure everyone has a hopping good time!!
      Okay, on to the new equipment part.  Let me just say, sometimes it pays to live like a pauper throughout the year; it makes tax time a little less painful.  I picked up a couple two three pieces of pure-de-sunshine! A Grand Calibur and a Vagabond! Oh but hold on sisters, don't leave the church just yet...  I thought I was in Heaven already (in my stamp lab), but then thanks to my good ole' friend Kylie I got a Singer 160th Anniversary sewing machine (ma'ams and sirs I did)!  I say if you are going to hang with the bigg girlz and boyz,  you'd better have some bigg toyz (ooh, I crack myself up; either that or I am just deliriously sleepy)!   I was so excited, of course I had to play with the toyz asap. I used my Grand Calibur (got Grand labels 1 and 23) and even sewed my first project!  You can see pix of the project and the sewing machine below (excuse the background scenary, I was cleaning out a closet to adjust some things in the stamp lab). I have not had a chance to used my Vagabond yet, but I plan to give it a whirl sometime this week.  Well my little lovies, that's it for now.   


 

My very first sewing machine, thanks Kylie
(no, Kylie didn't buy it for me, you guys are so funny).



 
Pin Cushin Thread Catcher.  I just used it for table scrap catcher.



 
A view from the top, the lining of course has Fleur-de-Lys.  You know its got to have a Fleur-de-Lys somewhere on it.

Have a great nite and an even better tomorrow, Joyce.
