So I got 2 early Christmas gifts. Want to know what they are? As if you can't already see the pictures....
An iphone! Welcome to the current century, Cheyenne. I've never, ever had a cool phone. So when my circa 2005 lime green LG phone decided that it just wasn't necessary to hold a charge anymore, or that it was perfectly fine to turn itself off randomly in the middle of a phone call... it was time for a change. And, let's be honest, if I'm going to get a new phone then why not get hooked up good? And I did. After being excessively annoying adamant about going in to the AT&T store, I finally got a white iphone! And, not to be lame, but seriously it's amazing. Like, how did I live this long without a phone that had picture mail? Or internet? or a GPS? (not.even. picture mail. That's how old school my phone was, people)
Anyway, long story short. It's glorious.
Are you dying to know my second early Christmas gift? I bet you are.
I finally got a sewing machine! Just call me Suzie Homemaker. My dear, sweet mother of mine was probably slightly ashamed that she (as an incredible sewer/quilter) had a daughter who knew nothing of sewing. So, after a few lessons she bought me my very own Bernina sewing machine! We spent the weekend of Thanksgiving spending way too much time and money at the fabric store just "ooh-ing" and "ahh-ing" at all the amazing fabrics and, of course, we bought a TON of various fabrics for my first sewing project! My mom helped me make the single cutest pillow cases (pictures to come) and I realized how much I really love sewing. My mom is ridiculously talented with sewing and quilting so hopefully now I can finally follow in her footsteps. (ps just a side note, if anyone needs a quilt machine-quilted, she's the lady to call. She does it as a small business from home but, seriously people, she's incredible)
Merry Christmas to MEEEEEEEE
Bring on the projects!
