Default Hello group

I'm David,
How many fifty-something men are members here? I come by way of my fastination with antique Singer sewing machines. This is my latest iteration of fancy for mechanical things, which I've had since I was a kid. In honor of my late mother and her abilities as a seamstress I have a mission to make a quilt to use as a replacement for the one she gave me at age 16. It is a yarn tied patchwork with complicated wheels with spokes. I finally appreciate just how much work and skill went into it. With my mechanical skills I'm determined to make a quilt frame and use an antique Singer 66 to quilt it. No $10,000 machine for me! I'm here to gather information and pilfer ideas. Thanks in advance!
