My New Toy

Look at my new toy. My mom, mother-in-law, and I got a quilting machine. Its pretty big and takes up a whole room but I love it. I'm so excited to learn how to quilt down my own quilts and maybe someday other peoples. A good friend of my mom is giving me free lessons and teaching me all the tricks, so then I can teach my moms. It has been so much fun just messing around with it and realizing how easy it really is. When I get a little better I'll post my work.
