Saturday Show and Tell
I have been gone from this blog for so long I thought I ‘d better post something before I forget how to!! Well maybe not forget but I have been missing writing posts. I have been reading and seeing all the wonderful things Jennie has been posting and loving every minute of it. She has done a great job in my absence. I have been having some vacation time and am now I am back!! It was wonderful but I am ready to get back to work. Actually I have been doing quite a bit of sewing this past couple of weeks. We have been doing some sewing for RJR Fabrics to take to Quilt Market. They are great to work with, we always appreciate them. I have one more project to go so I will be busy for a couple of more days with that.
I thought I would show my new little toy that I got for Mother’s Day from my husband. He knew I had been looking at them and so when this one came up he made sure to get it. I think it is so cute and can’t wait to get it all cleaned up and ready to sew. I know the light works so hopefully everything else works. I have been waiting until I can put in a good amount of time to get started. I will let you know how it goes. (I did show it on instagram but thought for anyone who does not instagram you may want to see it too. If you don’t instagram you really don’t know what you are missing. It is so much fun!!)
I also found these cute little bundles of fabric in a great shop called Westwood Acres and well they just had to come to my house. I can’t wait to sew something with them soon. She has a great assortment of fabric in her shop, this is not the first time I have purchased fabric from her and I always love getting my packages she sends.
Sometime in the near future I will tell you a little more about my vacation, it was so much fun and we traveled quite a bit and did a lot of things. It involved planes, trains, taxi’s and busses, and of course cars. It was a blast ending with my parents visiting for three weeks. Be back soon with some pictures of what I have been sewing.
Have and great weekend and Happy Mother’s Day!!
How fun to get a featherweight machine! Happy Mother’s day and welcome back!
Hi, your featherweight is beautiful, my sister and I both have black ones but we got my neice a white one, we love them. Have fun, bet it works first try. Regards Sharon
Sounds like you have had an amazing vacation. I can’t wait to see the sewing you have been doing for quilt market. What a lovely husband you have and your new toy looks great. Happy Mothers day. 🙂
Happy Mother’s Day Looks like you had Mother’s Day weekend. Enjoy your new machine and all the fun projects you can make.
Now we both have a featherweight!!! I am so excited for you!!
I bought this book and I think it is a great investment for all featherweight owners. His website is a great place to learn more about your machine. I love sewing with mine! I ordered an extension table for it that I can’t wait for it to arrive at my door.

I have a Featherweight just like that and I love it. Congratulations!

Super cute! I got an antique Singer last week, but it does not work. It is just for decoration. 🙂
Such a wonderful present, you have a very kind husband! Love all those gorgeous fabrics too 🙂 So nice to read what you have been doing and looking forward to hearing more. Happy Mother’s Day, Clara!
