I whipped up a corset cover, no pattern, and it worked so well! Vid at https://youtube.com/@HulloItsIcySews

Serious quilt wrangling finished this afternoon, as I completed the quilting on my music quilt with ever faithful Nellie, the 68 year old Singer sewing machine. She is a Singer 306. I used one of her 36 stitches and a walking foot. My shoulders know I have been hefting and shoving just a bit. The pay-off from knowing I did it all on a domestic sewing machine is worth it.

Started walking foot quilting. Got a few tips fro YouTube and set myself up for maximum comfort. The new sewing room layout is great. Sewing with a Singer 306 c. 195

Vintage sewing books recommendations? Please share, I would like to broaden my skill. Especially if these books have pattern drafts. #sewing #vintagesewing #vintagesewingpatterns

It's always a delight when I get to write about my favorite thing in the world - my vintage 15-88 Singer sewing machine.

New #SewingProject video! I took apart my newly made Victorian walking skirt and made it better, 'cause that's what #sewing is about! Find it at https://youtube.com/@HulloItsIcySews

News on the restoration of the Singer 401 circa 1959. I have cleaned and oiled it and removed a tangle in the bobbin race, but so far the tension discs are unfixable because something prevents the movement of the tension spring. Have the service manual as well as the user manual, and am working my way through YouTube clips. If it can't be done here, I will take it to a repair shop. After all, it is the greatest sewing machine ever built! #sewing

1890 Delineator (house magazine for Butterick patterns.) Embroidered outing shirt for a man. An outing shirt was
sportswear. The embroidery is interesting.
