Here's the quilt top I pieced on my computerized Janome machine and then assembled with my new vintage Singer. All thrifted fabric. I want to back it with dark fabric close to the blackish one on the top. No luck so far as the search continues. I may just purchase fabric but I'm in no hurry. The finished size is 60"x66"/152x168 cm.

Loving the new old vintage #sewing machine I picked up for when my new new computerized machine is getting maintenance. This Singer Slant-o-Matic 401A was built in 1960 and runs like a dream. And who doesn't love anything with "o-Matic" in the name? I used it to assemble a bunch of quilt blocks, the results of which I'll be sharing soon.

Celebrating. I won Bobbin Chicken by two inches and finished piecing all the blocks for my next quilt today. Tell me what fun you are up to! #sewing #quilting #MenWhoSew

Nine thrifted shirts and a technique I made up myself (but probably isn’t original) and I’m almost finished with this piece I’m calling “Storm at Oxford.” It’s machine pieced and big stitch hand quilted with variegated #8 perle cotton and measures 42”x48” (107x122cm.)

This is half of a quilt top I finish few months ago. Recently I started piecing the back completely from the leftover fabrics from the front. The binding will be the black floral print. My plan is to straight line quilt and donate to a local animal rescue for their charity auction.
The design is called Hopelessly Devoted by Natalie Whipple of Whipple House Quilting.

I created this #marketbag as part of an art challenge to reuse an insulation material in a project. I cut down the thickness and randomly stitched across it to flatten, and added the gold mesh for a little bling before embroidering. The other participants pieces are the last three photos.

After a week of pixel jockeying with videos and photos and websites for #ElfkinLaunch, I am back to the #sewing room today. It’s time to put a less Pilgrim looking collar on Jeremy’s shirt. Never thought I’d be so happy to see plain white cotton! #tailoring #MenWhoSew

Y'all, #ElfkinLaunch is finally here!

Let's kick things off with Armond saving lives with his thick thighs. #sewing #menwhosew #tailoring #artist #lgbt

The plackets are on, pockets half done, and collar all prepped on hubby’s birthday shirt. Time to stash this away and head to the airport to pick him up!
