the power of Twitter

So, I posted a tweet Thursday that I was frustrated with hand sewing, but it was my only option. I am a full time student and I simply don't have the money to buy large ticket items.

Well, no sooner than 5 minutes after I posted it, one of my Sororz called me and said she has a sewing machine that her mother gave her (her mother is an avid seamstress with many machines) and that I can HAVE IT!

Omg, Omg, so I was doing the happy dance and nearly in tears thanking my dovely Soror for a wonderful gift... Just last Saturday I received an Ikea Ektorp sofa for FREE! (see freecycle rawks post, lol) And now I am getting a new (to me) sewing machine for FREE!

The Universe is spinning for me, yall. Yes, I said yall...

freecycle, twitter, they all help college students get by....

I stayed up last night trying to decide what my first project would be. I still havent decided, but I will soon. One will definitely be my friend Ashley's purse. :) And a dressform for all my prospective projects!

Thanks for reading,
