I bought a sewing machine! It has been on backorder and I have been
not so patiently waiting for it to arrive - it was finally ready to pick up yesterday!

I did a lot of research on what type of sewing machine I wanted and I narrowed it down to the Husqvarna

Viking line:

I selected the Emerald 118 and here it is!

This machine has so many exciting features. It has 18 different stitches, a one step buttonhole process, adjustable presser foot pressure, a see through drop-in bobbin case with an automatic bobbin thread pickup:

and a built in automatic needle threader:

It came with so many nice accessories - a few of which I have no idea how to use yet:

and this model has 8 different presser feet:

I am really excited to start sewing, so far I have only sewn basic straight seams with the presser foot that was already on the machine! Stay tuned!
