So, I read on a post here posted by Lew that Gretchen "...might want to embroider the Sewing Machine addicts prayer onto a throw pillow..."

"God, grant me the serenity to pass on the machines I cannot save,
The courage to save the machines I can,
The wisdom to know the difference,
And forgive me for ignoring the first one from time to time"

I forward this as a funny to my Mom...
When I got the Singer VS2 "Daisy" that she shipped me, in the box was this....

Mom's ROCK!

What a great mom!

Where's the "Like" button!?

SteveH

I know huh? BTW if anyone wants a copy of the pattern she used, I will bring it to work tomorrow and scan it. FREE of charge of course!(..with Mom's permission in advance)

I hope my kids will say "Mom Rocks" someday! Guess they get to that stage when they are parents and realize what it's like to be a mom or dad. Yep, your Mom does rock but then it looks like she raised a pretty good son also!!! I would love to have a copy if possible and thanks for the offer. Just let me know what to do to get one. Looks like it's cross stitch, right? No matter, it's great!

Your mother does lovely stitching!

Yeah, having my youngest DD about to turn 21 (Saturday!) make a guy feel appreciative for sure...

So true . . . all of it.

the one I love -

I'm a fabricaholic on the road to recovery . . .

Just Kidding! I'm really on the road to the fabric store!

KLO

Very funny ..... even though it is true of a lot of us so maybe I shouldn't be laughing. Although I think you are on the road to the nearest sale of old machines rather than fabric, no? hahaha


And SteveH ..... just wait until your youngest is approaching 40. You will wonder how the heck that could possibly be happening!!!

That's great! It's true that most moms rock, but Steve, yours seems to be particularly awesome!
