well this is the site that greeted me when I went upstairs for my morning coffee!I was needless to say steaming! As we sat (barely) across from each other me glaring & him grinning like a fox in a hen house! We never said a single word! Lucky for me, because when I was done He said lets have a look shall we & he covered my hands & led me into my sewing room & showed me this

Wow, what a wonderful hubby you have. He is definitely a keeper. I'm pulling a 5 day straight babysitting for my 3 little grandsons, have an hour drive there and back home again, it will be a really long week and guess what I have to look forward to on Thursday that hubby just could NOT bring himself to tell me - He is bringing his mom over to watch baseball and have hotdogs. She is in a nursing home and gets 3 or 4 visits a week from him and 1 a week from me - after a very long week I am not to thrilled about not even being able to relax when I get home .... I see a very early bedtime for me. Would you want to trade hubby's???? lol - I thought not. :)

When I got to the next picture with the peg board and saw the hoops, I knew what machine he had gotten you - the Janome 11000 - that's whay I recognized the hoops as that's what I have! Oh! You are very luck! He has done an awesome job all around. I love being able to connect my pc directly to my machine.

LOL, we have been together for almost 35 yrs & he never ceases to amaze me! Sometimes even for the better! Honestly he is just sew happy that I am still here & he said he knew hos sad I was when my machine was gone for sew long he didn't want me to have to go through that again!
by pldc 02 Apr 2012
PS. I sent him Wal-Mart to buy the gdkds t-shirts & he had to go back 3 times to get the right sizes, lucky for us it is very close! sew yes he does have those moments too! But he is still a keeper!

well ladies in my excitement this morning I forgot to tell you what kind of machine I got! It is a special edition Janome 11000 & it weighs a ton! My other machine is a Janome 10001 upgrade & it has been giving me grief, It is almost 11-12 yrs old & this is the first time (well the second) that it has given me problems! I have used it almost every single day since I first got it & now I am learning all about the new one sew I can use it too!

It came with all kinds of things but the best I can tell sew far is it has 5 different size HOOPS! I am sew excited it comes with lessons too! & a CD with 1100 free designs!Plus the machine has a bunch of them too! & alphabets too! IT already surpasses my old one! OH & I see that it has an automatic thread cutter!!!!!! Sew when you change thread colours you won't have that mess underneath! WOW! & that's just what I have learnt sew far!
by pldc 02 Apr 2012
old one & one of the other awesome things that I have learn't is that it has an automatic thread cutter sew that when ever you change your thread colours it clips it & you don't have that mess underneath! WOW

Hey that looks better than my kitchen table most days, LOL. But ohmygoodness what a sweetie he is. I hope you both live long and happy lives together to enjoy what you have! Not only did he get you a new machine, but also made extra places to put all of its bits n pieces. Excellent! He's a star -and he obviously knows you're worthy of such devotion too :)

What a great finish to your saga of no machine whilst in repair. You couldn't have wished for a better outcome. You have a very BRAVE husband, mine wouldn't dare touch/move anything in my sewing room without my knowing. :)

Actually he has been doing pretty much everything including cooking, laundry, grocery shopping & today he even helped me make muffins, I messed them up but that's ok I am remembering things as I do them To bad I couldn't remember things before I mess them up!
by pldc 03 Apr 2012
them up But @least I am remembering them! I used the mixer for the muffins! Then when he was putting them in the oven I realized why the batter was sew nice? Needless to say they are less then stellar, oh well I did remember it in the end

Wow, what did you feed him?? My husband tries to carefully walk around my table so as to not knock anything down. I have a very tiny space, and he is afraid of it. It sounds like you have a real keeper! That is really awesome.
