"I begged my parents for a sewing machine for years, and finally got one for my birthday. Then, because I apparently was/possibly still am a horrible brat, I proceeded to never use it. Not even once. All my dreams of handmade, velvet-embossed tube tops driven out the window by my own pre-teen laziness."

Singer sewing machine, $99.99, available at Sears.
