Hey everyone :)

I'm a mom of four and busy, but I love sewing. Last week I sold a vintage Singer 301a to a local quilter and had the pleasure of visiting her in her sewing room. I instantly began obsessed with wanting to learn to quilt, so I took the money that she gave me for the sewing machine and headed straight to the fabric store and bought some lovely fabrics. Now I just need to figure out exactly what to do next.

I'm about 20 minutes south of Birmingham. How's the weather down there? We are still cold but thankful for some warm days last week.

Yes, I know but we needed the money and I knew that one would bring in the most. I also have a 15-91 that I use and a 319w that I will use as soon as I order needles and a belt, plus a 185J, a 99K, a 306w, and a few newer Singers that I plan to sell.

I will never sell the 15-91 or the 319 and someday I will get myself a little white featherweight.
