I have a sewing machine that I got for christmas a couple of years ago. It sits on a table in my bedroom. When I first got it, I was thrilled and would spend hours just sewing material together. I never actually made anything. I started making a quilt, but lost interest in it rather quickly. Now, I just use it to mend clothes that my boys or Terry somehow manage to rip or tear.
I really wanted a sewing machine but now that I have it, I rarely use it.
I wanted a sewing machine so I could quilt, but I don't have room for it.
I just need a needle and thread so I can put the button back on my pants.
I bought my wife a surger for christmas one year. I think she has used it once.

HAHAHAHA Hey you have wait an hour to do an applause again. You're racking them up from me today.
I'm getting my great-grandma's sewing machine when I finally move.
I can't sew a goddamn thing, so I guess I'll use it for decoration.
I really wanted a sewing machine and finally got one and went out and bought a pattern and some really expensive material, but before I started that, I figured I do some mending. First thing I went to sew, the entire needle housing broke in two.
I don't know where it is now.

Look behind the table legs.
I rather enjoy sewing myself. I made a patchwork quilt once out of all these little scraps of fabric I got for free from the local interior designer place.
I used it when I was away at school but now it's in a trunk in the garage.

Does it hurt?
Hehehe, no it's a lot like biting the inside of your mouth, you have to start slow and work your way up.
:P

Just keep on making fun of me, why don't you?
I wasn't making fun of you!!
But I don't know how it is impossible to bite the inside of your lip either.

OMG! I just removed a small portion of flesh from the corner of the inside of my lip! It peeled off like paper or something. I don't think I'll probably do it again, though.
Oh you're progressing so well!
I have a portable sewing machine that I don't use very often. I used to have a great old fashioned one that I made all Tim's baby stuff with. I sold it and I wish I hadn't. For all it's lack of fancy extras, it was 100 times the sewing machine I have now. :'(
About 8 years ago my wife decided she needed a sewing machine. You know what she's sewed on it? Nothing. It just sits in the closet.
