I love to sew, mainly quilts and bags. I am 66, married to Fred and have one son, Matthew, who is 27. I enjoy embroidery and applique and prefer to machine piece and quilt my projects. I love my vintage Singer sewing machines especially my Featherweight 222K. I’m enjoying treadling on my 201K Singer and I collect Miniature Sewing Machines and currently have three Essex , one Singer 20, one Singer 40, two Vulcan Miniatures and my latest, a Grain. My love of sewing I believe comes from my Grandmother - I still have the drawings she made for me to embroider on tea towels many many years ago!

A MAY FINISH!!





Taa-daa!! A finish for May!! This little quilt is going to our friends new baby. They also have a little 3 year old, so I'm making her a rag doll so when the parcel is opened, there is something for everyone!!! I'll show you a pic of the doll when it's finished.

Happy Sewing!!
