Today, Gloria and I tested out my new sewing machine. She was able to explain all the parts and pieces that came along with it and their purposes. I'm very pleased with it, especially now that I understand all that it can do. We even tested out the button hole foot. Its the presser foot that would create a button hole, according to the size of a button. It was interesting to see how intelligent today's sewing machines are. I can't imagine attempting to do such a task years ago before technology was so advanced.
Now that I have my own machine, I'm eager to work at home on my quilt and progress at a quicker pace. I find it very exciting but relaxing at the same time. These lessons with Gloria have truly allowed me to become more comfortable with not only quilting, but sewing as well. In the beginning, it was a little stressful because it was new and unfamiliar. But now, its become my nightly enjoyment. I look forward to it everyday.
