I've just ordered this and the fall-flavored cat scarf for myself and my partner!!

Perhaps forgive me for saying, because you've solicited for no advice, but a number of your designs (especially the Kneady Kitten <3) would make for positively charming apron designs!

Thanks for sharing your talent!

Seconding this, a simple Brother or Singer machine will be a faithful workhorse for years, minutes to learn and a lifetime to master, easy to service with tutorials and always available parts; my Brother (LS-2125) has served me well, with off-and-on projects, for over two decades!!
