Happy Sewing Machine Day!
Sewing Machine Day
When : June 13th
Sewing Machine Day celebrates a very important invention ----- the sewing machine. The first sewing machines were made in France in the 1830s. It wasn't until 1846, that they were patented in the U.S. What a great invention. Prior to it's creation, clothes items were sewn together by hand...stitch by stitch.
People who know how to use a sewing machine are dwindling in number. Our mothers and grandmothers had a sewing machine in the house. They used it, too. But, look around your house. Do you have a sewing machine? Chance are, the answers is no.
If you have a sewing machine, enjoy today making things with it. If not, consider picking up sewing as a hobby.
Today's Thought Provoking Saying:
"A stitch in time saves nine."
...Saves nine "what"?
Hug your machine,
Bunny

If only I'd known I would have let her sleep a little later. My sewing machine and I had a date this morning at 5:30 AM before I went to work. Sewed the side borders on my quilt.
I can't imagine life without a sewing machine.
Thanks for letting us know!
