    Default Bonjour from France

    Hello,

    My name is Philippe and I live in west of France in Nantes. Most of women in my family where sewers and I learn how to use a sewing machine when I was very young, at least a treadle . I work for a state law enforcement agency as IT specialist.
    At this moment I don't quilt, but I should begin if I have some time. I am more a vintage sewing machines enthusiast, I earn ten of them. With those I already fix, I sew some little things.
    If you could forgive my broken English, I will be pleased to become a member of your community.

    Enjoy a nice day

    There are many on this site who can encourage you with older machines. I don't happen to be one of them! I, too, learned to sew on a treadle (my mom's) which I now have. Welcome from the mid-Atlantic state of North Carolina.
