My new purchase! I know some people will think I'm stupid for buying a sewing machine when I am only here for 2 years, and should be spending every minute exploring Hong Kong and Asia and enjoying all these new experiences...

Who cares what they think! I brought my sewing gear with me because I like it. I've been doing a little bit of handsewing (a really, really little bit) but I have a quilt I'd like to finish for my bed, and I want to finish it while this cold weather is still hanging around. And for that I needed a machine.

I'm taking bets on how long I'll take to finish it. Odds are it will come back to Australia still in pieces...
