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!

I REMEMBER THIS FABRIC!

I found this beautiful pink floral in my stash and immediately remembered when I had purchased it.....  about three years ago my son was in the school cricket team and they were having a fund-raiser match - yes, you guessed it .....  for Breast Cancer research!  I made a Grab Bag and put lots of lovely pink items inside - a pen, notebook, change purse and key ring I think!  I was so happy to find it and make another bag for this Appeal.

    Oh that is pretty fabric. Kind of reminds me of Pandolph and Laura Ashley.
