My first sewing project on the new machine was a success! A couple of wobbly corners, and I accidentally put the ribbon on with the matte side facing out, but all-in-all, not too shabby for the inaugural project!
I was going to go with a nice, subdued fabric -- some kind of muted, graphic floral print, I suppose. Then, I saw this....

...and thought "Subdued? Who needs subdued?!" (The fabric -- Los Novios -- came from Joann's.) Many thanks to Lupinbunny for the excellent needle roll tutorial (http://lupinbunny.blogspot.com/2007/02/needle-roll-tutorial.html)!
Very nice! Could you come over and remind me how to use my sewing machine?
