    Starts the story of "my" new machine....

    My DH worked on a shirt for me for over 2 hours on Saturday. It is the cutest shirt with "Fishing Tweets" on the front of it.

    He clipped all the jumper threads as it changed colors (all 28 thread changes!) and then clipped all the threads off the back.

    I'll wear it on Tuesday (the the Strippers & Hookers meeting) so I can show off his handiwork to them too.

    By the way...it's "My" new machine but the DH has made all but one of the projects on it so far. He really enjoys relaxing this way it seems.

    He is such a sweet lovable guy....I'm soooo dang lucky.

    Smiling while he "worked"

    OK keep him working and but lots of things to put them on. YOu ahve a business starting and just think about it a minute, it's your machine, but think of what you can get done while he is on it. ROFL. You are soooooooo lucky.

    Wow, are you ever lucky! I would LOVE it if my husband enjoyed quilting or embroidery. Your DH did a great job.
