Sewing 1901-2010

This is my beatuy that i sew with, my partner in crime. It was a Christmas present years ago from my mother who taught me how to sew and be creative. I love this machine more than it's probably normal to love a sewing machine.

The next two pictures are of two different Singer Model 127's from 1948. One is old and rusty and the other is in impecable condition and still works. I haven't used it much but it's a beautiful machine.


This is a Singer Model 28 Sphinx from 1901, I got it from an antique store in Two Hills for $5.00. Best sale ever. I find it an incredibly beautiful work of art and wish that everyday items were still made just as tastefully as they use to be.

Last but not least, this blue beauty is a Beacon machine from somewhere around the 1950's, i can't seem to find much information about Beacon's on the internet, so i don't really know much about this machine except that it works but is difficult to thread.

Love at First Sight

Later that night, after the Antique Mall, i was browsing kijiji and found this gorgeous chair and ottoman for what? $15? So we drove to this little old mans house and picked it up (he decided to change the price to $20 which was so cute). I just love it and my cats do to.

I got these owls from a friend for Christmas, they are salt and pepper shakers but i think they are adorable on display in my living room.


These ones i got at Pier One, they seem more serious and i love them for it
