Tonight my bff, Rachel, gave me the kindest gift… a new sewing machine! She knew I'd been saving up for one since my previous machine bit the dust. These photos are grainy, but the message says "Elsie, Consider this your store warming gift. I'm so proud of you, Bestie! XOXO. Rachel". I was in tears and completely thankful! I brought my big manual home to read tonight. So excited to try new projects.
Thank you, Rach! I love you.
I feel so lucky to have the most wonderful friends in the world.♥
