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!

SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE


My first finish for 2017🙂

A birthday gift for February.  This cute little turtle was a quick and easy one to do and I happen to have a book in my stash to suit!

Lovely sewing weather - rainy and quite pleasant temperatures as opposed to last week which was just horrible!

I'm working on my ODIBAG car quilt today ..



I need to buy another colour for sashing - and I think I will do black cornerstones between the sashing.

Happy Sewing !
Cheers from Helen
