I love these treasures. Both of my daughters are married to wonderful fellas too and now we have grand daughters x2 and another on the way. <br />I take care of hubbs and also my 94 year old daddy<br />Thank you for sharing your adventures. Now I have to drive out to dads fancy neighborhood for oldsters (Ashby Ponds) and retrieve my abandoned phone.... perhaps I will drop by Good Will and see if they have any treasures..... I also look for old Levis. I like cotton :-D<br />Happy WednesdayRosemary B❤️https://www.blogger.com/profile/17792395820711368533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873280518345422701.post-16468233832462131672018-02-25T15:34:36.102-05:002018-02-25T15:34:36.102-05:00The handcrank is so much fun!

I'm not sure anout using it for a big project yet.

I do not do Christmas well. My late husband and I were usually broke and made Thanksgiving a bigger deal, since his birthday was the 24th. My husband has had to deal with the fact that I never get around to decorating. He hasn't always done a good job of selecting gifts for me. He became fascinated with free motion quilting and has probably watched more Tim Latimer videos than I have. When he saw that purse, he asked me if I thought it was okay for him to send that much money on a gift for me! Of course, I said yes. It's an amazing bag and well designed. It's probably one of the best gifts I've ever gotten.<br /><br />I am waiting for a 1892 Singer handcrank to show up today. AND, I bought a cannister for a National Two Spool that just may get that machine going again. Then I think I'd better stop buying sewing machines for a bit and let the herd settle in.Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13382050215676302342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873280518345422701.post-71375381730199979912018-02-19T12:02:22.744-05:002018-02-19T12:02:22.744-05:00Cheryl, Thanks for sharing your life-more-abundant...Cheryl, Thanks for sharing your life-more-abundantly Christmas style! Cool! I love the history-related thimbles! What a delightful collection. A daughter-in-law gave me a Fons-&-Porter vinyl design wall! We had 15 people here, at one point. It IS the high-light of the year.

I had the funk and flash book when it first came out and I was the sort of young adult who would embroider stuff for people I loved. There is a touring show of many of those objects. I think I cried at it a couple years ago.<br />Christmas is hard at our house (we have a holiday hater) so I enjoy it vicariously. And thanks. I can see applique for that sky disc.SJ Kurtzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871599515352715171noreply@blogger.com
