Minimum Effort, Maximum Output

There is something fantastic about hearing the buzz of machines hard at work while I am not. My favorite sounds? My Bernina wizzing away at machine embroidery, my dishwasher doing what I hate, and of course, my washing machine saving me from beating clothes on a rock down by the river. Minimum effort, maximum output. Isn't technology great?

Now they just need to invent an automatic mopping machine.

I have a steam mop and I love it. But it still requires me to go push it around the floor.

Or hire a cleaning lady to push it around the floor.

awesome design! Your stuff is so cool!
I too love to hear the dishwasher chugging away. Too bad I procrastinate actually putting the dishes IN. If you were to see my sink and counter right now...ew...yeah....I need to put that dishwasher to work.

Too bad there isn't a machine to put the dishes and laundry away ;-)

Love your designs and creations. I'm always aspiring to make something beautiful, but always find excuses not to start. What Bernina do you work with? I think something like that would be a perfect match for me as I enjoy being a part time graphic designer and aspire to sew.
