Day 18


My Sewing Machine

I've lost count of how many quilts I've made on this for friends, relatives and strangers. I inherited this machine from my Grandmother, complete with original needles. When she bought it in the late 60's it was a top of the range machine, and I have not yet had one single issue with it. It's a dream to use and so quiet. I hope I make as much use out of it as I can, making as many people as possible happy with things to look pretty or keep them warm.

  2. I don't think she ever used it Sharon. From what i found of her creations they were all hand-sewn. She was very talented in many things :)
