Apologies for the radio silence folks and thanks so much to everyone who stopped by A Note to Follow Sew via the Let's Get Acquainted New Blogger Blog Hop. I am slowly responding to all your kind comments.
I am afraid I have been neglecting all things blog because the BIG quilt is still not done. I decided if I have time to read blogs, take photos and write, I have time to sew and have been prioritising that.
I promised myself there would be no more posts until I had finished the top but I can't do any more on it for a week or so (we have guests coming, so the dining room table has to be used for boring things like eating). And I have something pretty amazing to show...
So I had a big birthday in the last couple of weeks and my FH bought me this:
The handle on the side turns and that creates the motion.
She's so pretty I could burst.
My lovely friends also bought me this stash of goodies (beware quilters, this photo contains other craft materials and you may wish to avert your eyes):
Okay quilters, you can look again for there was also some Liberty....
I'm a lucky girl.
OMG - the case that she comes in?!!! Perfection. Need I say more - *sigh*. Drooling over here...
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful machine! What generous friends! Happy Birthday to you!!
ReplyDeleteI have one like that which was my Grandma's. I used to use it with a motor which screwed on but it spoiled the look so I took it off and threw it away - needless to say I wish I'd kept it! Hope you had a very happy birthday.
ReplyDeleteAren't the oldies always the besties? Some great presents there - you've been one lucky duck!
