Featherweight Stitching

It's winter outside my Sewing Room now.

And it gets dark early.

I had the pleasure of stitching with my Friend.  She brought her Featherweight Sewing Machine.

I LOVE my Featherweight Sewing Machine!!


My Friend made three quilt blocks…wow!

I admit that I was busy stitching a Smocked Baby Bonnet to match the Christmas Daygown for my Granddaughter.

It's cold and she needs it!!

Stitching On My Featherweight!

My Featherweight Sewing Machine once belonged to my Mother.  
It's a little worse for wear but stitches beautifully.


My Granddaughter is helping me stitch this quilt.

She is the third generation to sew on this machine. 
Well, if my Grandmother used it too, then she is the fourth.

Victoria.
I am so happy my 16 year old Granddaughter likes to sew with me.
And she's good!


 Old Shoo Fly Quilt pattern. I was trying out colors for the sashing.  Blue it will be!

I decided to stitch these Quilt Blocks together using my Featherweight.
The quilt is for my oldest son and I think it will be extra special made on my Mothers old Sewing Machine.

I love sewing on it.

 I love that my Mother once sat in front of it.  That she touched the same levers as I touch and wound the bobbin like I am doing now.  It makes me happy. You never stop missing your Mother.

I love the mechanical sound of it, too.
I'm thinking about making a Daygown with it!
