    1st off a lady friend gave me some Grandmother flower garden peices, for a quilt that I may in time. Im going to try and replace(restore) some of the peices, in a quilt a lady friend gave me. She gave me 2. 1 is somewhat damages. The other one, I'll start to hand quilt it this week/weekend.. The lady that gave me those GFG peices, also gave me a 1924 singer sewing machine. She found the knee lever control, for that machine, and brought it over. I put that lever in place, and plug the machine in, and it RUNS LIKE A MOUSE. Just fantastic. Now member, I'm running out of sewing room(machines). This will give me 6,--3 singers & 3 table models/husqvarna. Everyone TAKE CARE---Don-isewman

    Some of the peices of the GFG quilt..
