that is really cute for the sewing room.

That is just darling. How sweet of him to buy it for you.

It's great...Maybe if you took the back of the frame off without disturbing it too much there might be a label on the back.

What a fabulous find!! Yay for hubby!

I wish my husband would scavenge the thrift stores with me....maybe when he retires he'll develop a "bargain addiction" like his wife. Great find. I love those treasures that are so unique. :thumbup:

I thought of that, but the back of the frame is sealed with brown paper. I'd have to tear it as it is glued all the way around.

I fell n love with your pic and decided I had to copy it. I copied it and enlarged it on my printer. I think I will applique it tho that's not my greatest talent. Can't see paper piecing cause I think it would lose too much clarity. I'll let you know how I do.

Wow someone really put a lot of work into that. Enjoy it ! You've got a sweet hubby :)

When you are finished please send me a picture. I would love to see it. Do you have an older black Singer? I don't have a black Singer, but I do have a green 15-125 and it is pretty much made the same as the 15-91. I thought of trying to make a green Singer picture, but don't think that I'm good enough to try that just yet.
