So, I planned on just whipping out a stack of these diapers...but here I am with one diaper made and lots more to go. I opened the sewing machine I had been given by my grandma, in the hope that it was working like she said...not the case! Come to find out the timing belt is busted and so are some of the gears that turn and feed the bobbin. So, I had two choices, pay $400 for the repair shop to tear the machine apart and replace things...or buy a new sewing machine. Hmmmm...I pick the new sewing machine!
The sewing machine lady and her husband are older than my grandparents, and they don't mind speaking if they can impart some of their wisdom. The first time I went in there the man asked me wether I had any big plans for New Year's eve, I said no, and he says, "good, you don't need to get go out anyway"...hehe, I love direct people! The second time was when I brought the machine in. His wife was helping me, and he was doing something else. Once she had determined my machine was dead, she told me about some of the ones they sell. I told her that I needed to ask my husband before we decided which machine to get, and she says, "you mean discuss, Dear we don't 'ask' our husbands anything, we discuss it!"....
So now I have a new sewing machine...which my husband and I DISCUSSED :-)....she would be proud...and I have a large stack of fleece calling my name!
