    Default Added another buttonholler to my collection

    The big brown truk brought me a pretty aqua blue Greist buttonholler today.


    I told my wife that now I needed to get me a machine to match. Then I remembered ...
    Hey, my Singer 338 is kinda blue ........


    How 'bout that .... a perfect match.

    Looks nice. I hadn't thought to check out the color of the one that came with Björn the husky Husky yesterday but now that I do I see it's a pastel green to go with the green machine. Not quite as nice a match as your blue one is to your machine but not bad.

    I have some duplicate Singer low shank buttonhollers and I was quite tempted to match them up with various machines and paint them to match.

    I've got one for my Kenmore 117-812 that is a dark reddish brown to match the brown crinkle machine.

    I really should get them all in the same place and take another group picture.

    I know how you feel. If I brought all my sewing machines up stairs from the basement I think the floor would collapse.
