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!

Yummy, another Hot Cross Bun

Hot Cross Bun

I wanted to play some more with my Singer 201K, so whipped up another Hot Cross Bun block, using the same fabrics I used for my Civil War block # 24 Ladies' Aid Album.  I'm making these Hot Cross Bun blocks to use up the scraps leftover from making the Civil War blocks..... you can see that I had to join two pieces for the top left red square, so I'm REALLY using up my scraps!!  

To see more of my Hot Cross Bun blocks, go to my Flickr site.

Okay, time for bed!

Happy Sewing!!
