Everything has a beginning

I just got serious about sewing not even a year ago. I've been really in to crafty things my whole life...thanks to my mom who has been my biggest influence on sewing. Last summer I got my very own singer sewing machine. It was from my great grandfather. He had been saving it for about 20 years after his wife passed away. It was a piece of junk! lol but I've been hooked ever since. Thankfully, after so many tears and frustration, my family and Chase's family went in together and got me a used (but amazing) PFAFF for my Birthday last December and I've been in love ever since then <3
