Intimidates? Not much really.
Frustrates? Oodles!
I bought myself a new computerized sewing machine about 6wks ago. It's sat opened, but never used because I was intimidated by her...a bazillon specialty feet...more stitches than I can probably count, or learn how to use. 7 automatic buttonholes. I've fantasized about automatic button holes! I've avoided button holes for years.
Feeling kinda grumpy, overcome by an urge to assemble the pieces for a swap item, I actually watched the enclosed dvd. Wound bobbins. Threaded and sewed.
I am so in love with my machine! And she's not nearly as fancy pants as my friend's beautiful new Bernina Aurora.
Next? Learning to cast-off that lime green scarf I learned to knit on those Hello Kitty needles.
