    Default VSM Facebook group - a little different

    As if we don't spend too much time on the computer! There is a new group on Facebook for vintage sewing machine collectors who embroider with their vsm. I didn't know you could do that and the pics are amazing. Check it out for yourself. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1421958014741838/

    That's really neat!! Thanks, it's amazing that VS machines can be the preferred. I don't think I'm coordinated enough!

    Very cool. I do thread painting and it's very similar to FMQing, except much more forgiving as you can cover mistakes and you get to use all sorts of fun threads.

    See if that works. It's cross posted to a couple of groups so it should be public.

    it's amazing what a talented person can do with a straight stitch machine! This is a bag allegedly made on a Singer SS machine in a treadle base in Mexico.
