Wonderful family you have! I bought MYSELF my new machine for MY Xmas plus a new OTT light (table top with craft caddy) and a new Rowenta Master iron! I guess I just don't have thoughtful encouraging family memebers! However, my oldest son was hiking the Grand Canyon and bought me an authentic Indian quiver with two arrows at an Indian shop somewhere nearby, knowing I collect Indian dolls, dreamcatchers, etc. It is stunning!
