Excitement!

My gorgeous 221 Featherweight will be arriving sometime today!  I am so excited!  A signature is required for delivery, so there’s no chance of me being stuck out in public anywhere for Black Friday shopping, whew!

I did score 2 killer deals on Amazon this morning (Black Friday shopping is so much better online, no crowds!) for Christmas presents (sorry, can’t post what they were in case the recipients read this).

Jim first Singer 301 arrives tomorrow, although it will be very late as it’s coming via UPS and they rarely get here before PM or so.  He’s really excited too!

I posted my dressing recipe if you’re interested, it is truly delicious if I do say so myself! 

We have a pecan tree to plant today, and we need to build another asparagus bed.  Doesn’t that sound more fun than hitting the mall?

Wow… am I rambling or what?

You'll have fun "playing" with the machine. Sweet.

have fun with your new machine, they work really well and my granddaughter had fun with it too - it is so easy to learn how to sew on them - of course you don't need to learn! you do it so well already.
We do not do the shopping either - can't stand those crowds.

No shopping on this "home front" either!! Looking forward to seeing pics of the "new arrival"! Onward to my GD's bridal gown alteration and one of her bridesmaid's dresses, also. Another unseasonably warm day on tap for us. Maybe a walk later.......snow tomorrow:-(

You are going to love your Featherweight. The first day you will just cradle it in your arms and carry it around with you. (Just kidding!)

Jim will love his new toy too. Looks like the two of you will have a fun weekend.

We are going for a drive in the country and out to lunch today. No malls for us, either.

Agreed! Anything is better than shopping on a day like today. Have fun with your new machines. Diane

I would do MOST anything to keep from shopping in public today. I did do a bit of online shopping this morning. Your day sounds pretty exciting to me!

Cj if you could buy only one would it be a 301 or the Juki 2010Q? Which makes the best straight stitch.

Fun fun fun in the Tinkle house! UPS doesn't deliver on Saturdays in Phoenix. You must be very special! LOL Look forward to the pictures of the new babies.

My shopping today was limited to a trip to the French Seam. LOVE that kind of shopping! Did you get your machine today? I want to see pictures!
