Hi Rose! Silverado Ranch is just down the road from me. I live over by The District, just off S. Green Valley Parkway. I would be happy to "PM" you, if you would tell me what "PM" means! I'd love to get together. I believe there are a number of people in this area who are on this blog. It would be fun to get to know each other.
I didn't know my first "straight stitch" was now considered "vintage", but that makes sense since my nieces and nephews consider me to be vintage! I'd almost like it back (it was a very sturdy Singer) but it didn't do buttonholes. Anyway, one of my nieces has it now, and it's still going strong, and she's still using it. It's many decades old, but they sure knew how to build them back then. I'm having fun with my new stitches. Still don't know what I'm going to do with them all, but it will be fun trying them out.
Thanks for writing! MacThayer
