how many sewing machines can I fit in my house


Rachel found this at a garage sale and offered it to Sarah who said that probley four sewing machines were enough for her!(or actually enough for Chris). So, I got it! It was built the year I was born so I think it was meant to be. It works but the threat won't stay in when I start sewing so I've got to get the manual. I was surprised to find a site that sells parts and the manual.I just love my new machine!


Now, Lia's trying to set the record but she's got to get one more to win! She had a really sweet sewing party for her birthday, sweet, as in she gave her own birthday party! She set her dining room up as a sewing room and they made all kinds of cute things. When I brought her surger to her I even got a party favor! Oh, hold it Lia, you have won! Your surger counts as a sewing machine so that makes five! Congrats!


This sewing machine Rachel found in her barn and fixed it up for Lia for her birthday.Its an old industrial machine and works! Rachel even fixed it up on this cute stand she painted. You go girl!


This machine Lia got at a garage sale Sat. and it runs great.I think it was probley one of the first machines with zig zag. Shes hoping folded up Tony will thinks its just a table!(I know she'll tell him)


Hello kitty machine(Sofias) and her good old Kenmore. I do love a kenmore!

Sew, I think there's lots of sewing going on . Isn't it great!

Well, onto my day....clean out awful fridge, organize sewing,craft,genealogy corner so I can create! Have a lovely day blog friends!

 I've always had a bird feeder, for years now. They bring alot of joy to me, nature so up close and personal. Now that we don't have any pets, we've loved having our bird feeders up again. We have this one tree out back and we have a little of everything for them. A little bird bath, three feeders and a suet feeder. There's usually ten to twenty birds in the tree at all times. Lots of beautiful finches, lots of yard birds, lots of black birds (who are quite noisy) red wing black birds and yellow headed black birds. We finally identified one that we couldn't figure out and its a Evening Grosbeak. Some come and we never see them again, just passing through. But, it's our little obsession right now, gives me something to do every morning. But, dang those birds are eating us out of house and home!

 chop, chop, chop were the sounds I woke up too yesterday. I've been hearing those sounds alot these last few weeks as my manly man has made hot sauce and salsa galore. But..............this morning it was different. I woke up to a beautiful bowl of tabbouleh...my favorite salad. The combination of the bulgar, parsley, cucumber and tomatoes just tickles my palet. My favorite part this time of the year are the pomegranate seeds, they add such color and flavor.(I really shouldn't be eating it but I chewed extra well ummm) Oooops a jar of grape juice just broke, manly man is canning....be right back. O.K. that's cleaned up and I'm heading out for a long overdue walk. It's a lovely day, blue skies and sun.

all is well

My daughter Becky should be home from the hospital soon, her surgery went well. Next the mourning for what was and will never be again, she had a lot of good cries last night. They weighed the breast and it was seven and a half pounds! I knew it was close to ten. Like she said jokingly she was looking forward to getting "alot off her chest". When I talked to her on the phone this morning I asked her how in the world did she ever get anything done with a two year old and 5mon. old! I did manage to get us all clean and fed by eleven. Is that good? And to think I raised six! Todays is Becky's Abbie's birthday, we hope to go to the movies this afternoon. I guess on the way home from the hospital they are picking up a new kitty for the children. They had promised them one when they moved in to their house, so how wonderful of them to realize what a good time it would be to bring one home. My children are so wise in so many things.Well........baby calls! Happy Day to you a
