new sewing machine + 2 hr. project

this past christmas i was fortunate enough to receive a new sewing machine as a gift (thank you hunny~), but have not had the time to use it... until yesterday. it has been sitting next to me for weeks and i've been itching to try it out. -finally- i decided to put everything aside and spend some time with my new janome machine. oh... all i can say is.. i <3 it!
so~ this semester i am taking a class entitled 'advanced image making' where, as the instructor says, "we do things fast and dirty here". each project is assigned and finished within 3 hours. so working with the same spirit in mind i thought, "hey, i'm just going to start creating something and see where it takes me~" and well... this is what i came up with in 2 hours. :)

i made it out of an old t-shirt that i found around the house~ it's 100% cotton so can be washed when it gets dirty~ another baggy for groceries~ :)

i can't wait to play with the machine again~
