Finally, I stopped working. Today was supposed to be my last day, but I had an emergency during the weekend. Everyone thought I would have my babies this week. I was having preterm labor and was taken to Bethesda and stayed there until Tuesday afternoon. Let me tell you, being three days on a liquid diet while connected to an IV is not fun. All I kept thinking, beside being worry about what was going on is about how unprepared I am due to the fact that I was working and was waiting to stop working so that we could start moving my sewing room to the basement and start painting and decorating the babies room. Now I am on bed rest for two weeks at least. Hopefully my husband will take care of everything.
I been lucky enough to have a baby shower at work. I got lots of clothes for the babies and other things from my baby registry. I am posting some pictures.

Hi Lizz. Welcome back! I've been watching your blog every day was praying that all was well. I sent you an email a couple of days ago. Bethesda is a little haul from your neck of the woods. :-) (even for me,and I'm in MD). Nice machine. I can tell that you love JoAnn's. You would love the new one in Brandywine (on Crain Hwy just before going into Charles county). It's a superstore. I pass by it 3x per week from the doctor's office and it's tempting not to ask my Mom to stop the car! We have stopped by a couple of times already. Take care!
I forgot to add that I did not buy this Singer machine at Joann Fabrics. My husband got it on line.
One thing I don't like about Joann is that the 40% off coupons cannot be use to purchase "big" stuff like sewing machines. So I got a better deal.
Hi there,
I found your blog last week and I have been reading past posts. Alterations are so expensive around here that I decided to start sewing. So far I have a machine (borrowed from sister). I hope I can learn something this weekend. I am very excited. Anyway, what books would you recommend for a person who has never used a machine or saw before (I can do buttons manually :) ).
Have a nice weekend!
P.S. I am also from NOVA.
Grace,
I think the books from Singer are very good for people who are starting to learn how to sew. Now that I am at home I will get one of my books and review it for you.
I don buttoms manually, I think most people do. Buttom holes is another thing. :P
Welcome back!! May you have a smooth delivery!!!
