Another Sewing Machine!

So, my primary sewing machine is Sassy Pfaffy. She’s got a built in walking foot built for “4 wheel drive” sewing as the dealer called it. I just love her. Then, I got Selma. She’s a retired machine, who we keep around for her good looks. (We cleaned her up a bit!) Then, at a garage sale, I got this machine, who I’m trying to remember if I named. I’m pretty sure I would have remembered deciding on a name for her. Well, I’m going to have to expedite the naming process for her, because another one is on the way.

I know, I said no more new machines for awhile. Actually, I think I said that I wasn’t going to be buying anymore machines. I’m getting this one for free!

That’s right…free.

Well, FFS which means Free For Shipping. I have to pay for shipping to me. But that’s not paying for the machine, that’s paying for shipping. A reputable diaper diva posted last week that she upgraded her serger, and offered to give her starter serger to a fellow diva…FFS. She estimated the shiping to be $20 or so. So she ran a quick drawing, and guess who won. Me!

It’s a Brother 1034d which is basically the cheapest Walmart serger.

But it’s a serger. And it’s only 2 years old. And it’s free.

So what do you think for as a name? “Sergio” is the first thing that comes to mind, but I don’t know if I want to let a male machine into my sewing space. I’m going to have to think on that one, and I am very open to suggestions.

I’ll definitely be posting pictures when it arrives!
