New Sewing Machine!

My new sewing machine, courtesy of my mom... has been set up for at least 3 weeks and she is the only one who has used it. Last night I decided to give it a go. The only thing I can't get used to is the absence of foot pedal. Every time I went to start I'd find myself twirling my ankle around looking for it. Its like trying to press in the clutch in a standard car!

Don't mind the outfit. I had just played squash, came home and put half of my pajamas on

I kind of wish the ties were longer, and the pattern didn't say to line them, but I think I might on the next one I do.
