At least you have a sewing machine.<br />I loaned my heavy Kenmore portable (bought in the late 60's) to my daughter a few years ago and have NOT seen it since - need to ask her about that! <br />When you figure out how to make slipcovers, let me know. I have a couch & love seat in a dark green and burgundy strip that needs some attention. :-D<br />GlendaGlenda/MidSouthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10729065523048603563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435765805635064987.post-11481251353909877512010-09-19T22:10:36.386-05:002010-09-19T22:10:36.386-05:00COograts on a job well done, Susan!

I wanted to make things like pillows, tablecloths, napkins--simple things. Maybe a curtain or two? Aprons? So I purchased a very basic Singer. My dear sewing, quilting, fabric artist friend laughed and called it a "disposable". Well, guess what! Her $6000 or $10,000 or maybe more "do everything machine" broke down and she had to borrow mine for a project!!<br />Love your pillows!<br /><br />Best,<br />BonnieFrom the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00789641912016566894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435765805635064987.post-64614775994567548112010-09-19T19:20:59.574-05:002010-09-19T19:20:59.574-05:00Oh, you are off and climbing!

Unless you intend on doing serious sewing, there is no need to buy an expensive machine. When I went to the hospital for my knee replacement, I told my husband that if I died on the operating table, he should know that there are big bucks worth of machines in my sewing room! I have top of the line machines that I dearly love.<br />BeckieSewconsulthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00427879934589715958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435765805635064987.post-70046743564787182612010-09-19T19:10:13.054-05:002010-09-19T19:10:13.054-05:00Oh I love your newing machine and your pillows loo...Oh I love your newing machine and your pillows look fabulous. You did a wonderful job. Mine is about 35 yrs. old and just a very inexpensive one at that, but I love it. Works great for me. Nothing fancy, but I have made numerous drapes, tablecloths, pillows by the hundreds and lots of other things with it, so you just keep on going. You did really good.
