Seams to me:

Brought home Big Sister today.  The new sewing machines:  computers that happen to sew.  Holy Cow!  It's been 13 years since I had a new sewing machine. Me and George hooked her up and re-allocated Baby Miller to the kitchen table. (she's so little) This one does not do embroidery but it is a monster of a machine and thinks for me.  I can do heirloom sewing w/ a push button:  but I had to give up my bunny stitch for a crazy cat stitch.  Seams there
                                                   only fabric and thread



are always trade-offs
