What do you want most in all the world - garb related, that is!

To figure out how to use my Brothers embroidery machine.  As it is, I'll probably trade it + $ for a new gown.  Feh - I'm so unmechanical.  As far as a piece of garb - a hat - I'm the Bella Abzug of pirates.
Sveethot!

Oh the list is huge!!  To sum it up!

The time & money to make and/or buy all the items that my heart so desires!!

Although the brown leather bracers I saw a couple of weekends ago at MNRF with Koi fish on them (one on each bracer) were very attractive!  (I'm a Pisces, what can I say!?)

Time to learn to and actually sew in my dedicated sewing room.
Right now, I just barely have enough time to redraw tissue patterns on clear plastic.
I'm trying to get to work earlier in the day just so I can leave earlier to have time to sew!
Very frustrating...

You haven't had enough coffee unless you can thread a sewing machine while it's running.

I want a decent sewing machine.  Like a better one than the $98 Walmart special I have.  Oh, I want a serger, and an embroidery machine.  Oh, and a Lynn McMasters costume and one by the 'very merry seamstress' :)  I'm sure I will think of more later.

The Janome Memory Craft 4900. This is the machine I currently have that I love. My workhorse with so many features I have not yet learned how to use. A big step up from the basic Brother I was previously using. Over 150 decorative stitches, 7 buttonhole styles, various stitches for various fabrics, etc.







This is the Janome Memory Craft 11000 I have my eye on that does everything. It has 2 hookups for the computer to download designs from saved folders, in addition for programs for Embroidery that can be purchased.

I already have two helpers for Garb and Alterations that I do. Of course, reorganizing the sewing area in the basement will be the big challange after Halloween to have more space.
