I've been following this board for years and never thought I'd post. I'm more of a listener than a talker. But lately I've wanted to reply to questions and post some pictures, so here I am.
I'm kind of a beginner at quilting, but I'd like to do more. I also make doll clothes for the 3 girls of my 9 grandchildren. This is my seventh year retired from teaching third grade. I still miss it. Sometimes I catch myself mentally planning lessons. LOL |
HELLO!! Welcome from the west coast!!
I love to make doll clothes too!! They never out grow them, never go out of style, hardly ever get worn out, I could go on and on!! Your sewing machine looks just like my mom's. What kind is it? |

Welcome from Oxford, Michigan.

We lived in Lapeer and Metamora from 1964 to 1979.
My "new" vintage Singer is a Model 66, often called a red eye for the decals. It was manufactured in 1917. The cabinet is a parlor or drawing room model. It's in great shape, but I haven't tried sewing on it because I haven't got it home yet. |

Hi and welcome! Quilting will help you get over the "need to teach" feeling. I'm a retired teacher too, and for the first few years I was really pining for my first grade classroom. It's been four years now, and I must say, this is the first year I didn't drool over the school supplies in the store:-) My focus now is fabric, fabric, fabric, and my next project!
