June 13 is National Sewing Machine Day

What a marvel the sewing machine is. The one I have that blows me away the most is my 1908 Singer model 66 treadle. It's so well made and beautifully broken in. It goes "tickety, tickety, tickety" when it sews and sounds like music! The bobbin winder reminds me of precision clockwork. It's one of my precious treasures!

On National Sewing Machine day I spent my day at my 1910 Singer Redeye Treadle tick, tick, ticking away. I am working on a chevron strip quilt. That day I completed the strips and am now ready to quilt it. I am planning on doing it on the treadle using a quilt as you go method. I own many machines and sew every chance I get but I always keep a project going on my treadle. So relaxing.
