My First Machine

For my birthday, my mother and my husband purchased me my first sewing machine!  The "Baby Lock BL9" seemed like the perfect machine to see if sewing was really 'for me.'

I purchased it from a sewing shop in Plano, TX where a nice, elderly lady named Beth told me to "find the machine that I felt the most comfortable with."  I told her that I didn't even know where to start!  She helped me thread my first needle, and I decided that this was the machine for me.
