Just sharing this lovely machine, that my husband bought me at the weekend. It is a Singer 411, with cams for embroidery stitching, and is a lovely machine.It also came in this lovely cabinet with drawers and the cupboard opens so that I can sit close in and sew, a lovely piece of furniture, that has pride of place in my sewing room.

I know! I know that I am an addict, but there are sooo many lovely machines out there, what's a girl to do.

No piccys today just a relieved sigh, I am sure I am one of many people who have lost the ability to blog due to an upgrade by the powers that be, bless them, which prevents anyone who is running on anything less than Internet Explorer 9,not accessible if you have Windows XP, from accessing their blog fully.

After many hours of messing about, I have managed to access via Google Chrome, bit of a fiddle, but having resolved to start blogging again, it is a relief, anyway got to find my camera!!

Good luck to anyone with the same problem.

hello

This lovely pattern comes from Bunny Hill Designs, and was a Christmas present, 2010! from my good friend Shirley. These patterns can be found at http://www.bunnyhilldesigns.com/default.as
This is how my lovely kit turned out , a nice quick finish in a busy day.

This doggy has some competition though, as you can see. Raya is now a big girl, and very naughty, but we love her dearly. Pebbles is just 11 years and tired, so they are taking a well earned rest from all the naughtiness, and having a well earned sleep.

Well I have finally been shamed into posting this one is for you Shirley:-)
