Now here's a sight to gladden the heart!
This is Miss H having her first go on the 1918 Singer 99K that I passed on to my friend Elizabeth before Christmas. Her lesson included some serious sewing...
...winding a bobbin...
... concentrating on keeping a straight line of stitching and not coming off the edge...
... and finally a bit of fun, with the emphasis on speed rather than direction. Will she be a free motion quilter or a cartographer? Looks like the coast of Cyprus to me.
I am told that Miss H means business and her first project is going to be a bag.
Many thanks to Elizabeth for the wonderful photos!
