My Sewing Tractor
 
1 Attachment(s)
I collect old sewing machines. Those that are beyond repair go in my garden as lawn ornaments. We saw this idea at a flea market so he took one of my lawn ornaments and made it into a tractor.

Wow, what an imagination, I love it!!! I can only imagine 50 years from now someone finding this and wondering, why did they have wheels on their sewing machines? Lovely quaint idea!!

My brother-in-law passed away several years ago but being from New England, he had a passion for old tractors, etc. He collected and restored them, then resold them. He would have loved this! It's fantastic!

I have a couple of old sewing machines that are beyond fixing and I have a few flower gardens now I can set my machines in between the flowers. I won't be as innovative but it will be fun.
