Hi, from North Carolina
 

Hi, I am glad to join your group after "lurking" for the past month. I am a self-taught sewist of children's clothes (four granddaughters) and outdoor gear. My late mom was an expert garment maker for her and my four brothers.

I love to collect and work on vintage sewing machines and have a collection of vintage Singers, Kenmores, and Japanese clones totaling 23 machines to date. My current favorite to sew on is my Singer 500A "Rocketeer" that I got at a thrift store for a song. I am interested in understanding and learning about quilting.

Thanks for having me!
