OMG ... It's HERE

This weekend passed in a BLURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I didn't post my Shopping List Saturday (sorry ladies)
I didn't post my Shadow Shot Sunday (sorry ladies)

Saturday was BUSY

We had our BrisStyle convention at Pando's cafe at Paddington and it went off. So many lovely ladies and so much lovely craftiness. I couldn't control myself and bought another of RE-read's fabulous brooches. I wanted desperately to buy the teapot and cup and the birds (sure thing) but alas did not have enough cash. Check her out and buy something from her etsy store ... they are so unique and wonderful!

I couldn't get over Betty Kingston's panties ... check here and you will see what I mean!

I loved everything that Beckybean brought ... those girls are so excellent, I only wish I had enough cash to buy all their stock. Their new purses are fabulous. (Blog HERE ... shop HERE)

Edward and Lily are doing an amazing fundraiser for the bushfire survivors so go HERE and check out the deal . They are original Edward and Lily Bushfire Bunnies!

Oh and Hey Harriets canvas fell off the wall and donked me on the head! (It was 'we made a promise') ...

Excellent day even with the newly acquired bruise.

Not to mention Saturday was VALENTINE'S DAY!



I came home to a bunch of sweet roses, a box of chocolate and a cute little softie. This was really excellent but then the keeper of my heart led me downstairs to the garage to the EH. The EH is in hospital. She needs a bit of work bless her gorgeous 179ltr V6 heart.

I thought this was a trick for my love to obtain a make out session in the back seat only to be TRICKED! There in the boot of his beloved machine ... was my beloved machine.
He had snuck into the store and taken off LayBy my Brother NV900. Which I thought was destined to be in LayBy until Christmas!



I am in HEAVEN ...

Such a lucky girl ...

The Reason ...

I am having this massive clearout of my sewing room for 1 main reason ... to be able to bring home this little darling .

I first saw a glimpse before it hit the market when I was at a Brother training session and fell in love with it then back in September I have madly fallen in love with this machine but I am not allowed to bring it home until I have made room in my sewing room.

I am having a massive yard (yardage hehe) sale on Sat with my friends, family and fellow BrisStylettes which should be fun and help me get closer to my goal! I'll let you know how it goes ...

Here's some reasons why I love the NV 900 ...

• It is a combination Sewing and Embroidery machine and so compact!
• All the Brother embroidery cards are compatible .. except Disney
  
• You can hook yourself up to the internet via the USB port and download straight to the machine
• 129 utility and decorative stitches
  
• 10 one step buttonholes 70 Built in embroidery stitches and a disc with 100 more

OOOhhhh I love it

It was just "road tested" in October's 2008 Machine Embroidery and Textile Art by Yvonne Keen commented "this is not a base machine with no features. It is actually packed with features normally found only on more expensive machines" and "the large embroidery screen is easy to see and there is an animated step by step instruction guide built in." "This is literally a machine you could easily take anywhere such as to classes or even in the caravan when on holdays...you won't be disappointed."

I bet I wont .... ;P
