My Singer Sewing Machine

Pin It
I knew it was in the closet and seeing it again....
It's been a very long time
I had to say good-bye to it's original box years ago and this carpet bag 
is perfect for it.

A Singer Feather Weight




My mom gave this to me years ago and I used it for classes for years. 
She tells the story behind it.  This sewing machine was the first thing that her and my Father purchased together. She remember is being around 70.00 dollars. If they did it on payments my Grandfather would have to co-sign. They saved and purchased with cash, she said with a very large smile.  The pedal was replaced sometime ??


It works wonderful 


And So Pretty

Triangles in the Corners

 Looking at this quilt now, "What was I thinking?"

Or, "I had way too much time on my hands !"

Press seams as you go.

I like to trim the seam allowance so when it's quilted it's easier.

Paisley Quilt

Pin It
I love paisley fabric and this is my vacation quilt.
I used a very different palette of colors and patterns, it's just fun.
Before the move this is the quilt that I put away here at the condo. Some times, it's nice to cuddle in a quilt no matter what the temperature is outside. 
It's a very simple pattern, a 2 inch center square and then just log cabin around the outside with 1 inch strips.



The finished size is a square 50" x 50" a good size for curling up on the couch. I used a 100% cotton batting and hand quilted.
