Word on the street is that Alan and a few of his faithful from the Needlebar have been lurking in our shop.
For now on we are NOT going to mention the Needlebar!!!
According to a few we are the village idiots and our shop has been mentioned in several topics and it was not nice. Anything related to the NB is copyrighted and belongs to Alan, I do not want to see it in this shop!!

As I have said, these machine will outlive us and it is best to start educating the younger generation, and what better way than to be open for all to learn from.

Go with it, don't fight it. You will lose. Ask me how I know.
I have just been collecting since last November and have 5 machines. Billy has been just wonderful about giving them the spa treatment and sending them back happy campers to live with me. :lol: :thumbup:

I need a cup of tea. Some folks just irk me. Sorry for my rant for the day.
And I love USING my many vintage machines. And they like to be USED, like they were meant to be used. Have fun treadling!

Since people are having trouble logging in to NB, I went and tried. On my first try, it said I had exceeded my alloted number of attempts to log in. Wouldn't let me in... I did notice on the bottom of the index page that it said ONE user was online at the time. It also said the most number of users online at once was 32, on some date in 2008. Wow. Not many members... Wonder why? (chuckle)

Sorry about so many pictures. I quit smoking, had a four year old for 6 days. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
