Telecast Thursday - Singer 301a Sewing Machine - Part 1

Hi everyone:

It's Thursday already and another video on the series on vintage Singer sewing machines  is ready for you to watch. This week I'm starting a 3-part series on my Singer 301a sewing machine. If you've been following this video series, you'll know that I already have a Singer 301 sewing machine, but you'll want to watch to see how this new acquisition differs from my other machine. 

You can watch the video below or on my Youtube channel.



If you haven't seen the other episodes in this series, you'll can find them here.

Check back next week for part 2 of this 3-part series to see how I resurrected this machine and if it actually ran when I plugged it in.

Happy quilting!

Book Review - Doodle Stitching: The Holiday Motif Collection by Aimee Ray

Hi everyone:

Welcome to Telecast Thursday! This week I'm reviewing Doodle Stitching: The Holiday Motif Collection by Aimee Ray.  


Doodle Stitching: The Holiday Motif Collection by Aimee Ray
I'm a bit prejudiced with this review as I have all of Aimee's other books and love, love, love them. I'm a sucker for cute and whimsical and Aimee's books are always full of those type of designs. This book is no exception and is chockfull of great designs for holidays, such as Christmas, Halloween and Valentine's Day. The best part - well, you'll have to watch the video to find out.

Book Review - Necktie Quilts Reinvented by Christine Copenhaver

Hi everyone:


Necktie Quilts Reinvented by Christine Copenhaver
This week I'm reviewing one of the quilt books that I recently acquired. I love to source out fabric from old clothing, so Necktie Quilts Reinvented by Christine Copenhaver is a perfect addition to my library. Christine has lots of information about how to deconstruct neckties and prepare them for inclusion in quilt, pillow and other projects. 

You can watch my review in the video below or on my Youtube channel



Check out this video to see some of the ties that I've picked up and how I source the fabric from them.
