Come meet M & Ms Cyn, everybody!

WHEN: Friday, March 26th
WHAT: DINNER to meet Mitmo & Ms Cyn
TIME: 7
WHERE: Fuddrucker's ~ S. Lamar & Hwy 71 (on Lamar in the Hobby Lobby shopping center)

Even though that is right around the corner from me, I will not be able to attend unless I can swap days off with a co-worker. I have this dreadful thing known as a job that makes me work until 10 at night. Whine.

If this is like the Melting Pots in Denver (fondue places), you will have to make a reservation. It's probably out of my price range right now. I have one of my writer's conventions coming up which means I have to scrape all my pennies in one direction.

I have a Brother cs 6000b (had to go look at the box.. grin)

When I was young, I worked in a vintage clothing store... I used to repair lace on the dresses.. I found it very soothing...

Is good!

And maybe you can help me figure out what is going on with my sewing machines. I have two. One is a Singer Featherweight (my grandmother's) and the other is a...Brother? It's an old one that they used to use in Home Ec classes according to someone who saw it.

We can order pizza and do the ol' Sew 'n' Sew Do~Si~Do!

I have a plan....if you bring your machines over before you go to work, I'll take a look at them before everyone gets here....then when you get here, we won't waste time and if (IF) I can get them fixed, you'll be ready to sew......if you wanna.....I'm not a sewing machine repairman....but I AM a Singer.... (Yeah...that was bad! lol )

This can be done. I really love my Singer but would love to actually use it.

In my dreams, there's this quilt waiting to be made....
