Oh Laura! this is amazing!!!! Do you know this woman? she is awesome!! Can I reblog? I really want my Father-in-law, Tex, to see this. He grew up on a Farm/Ranch in Texas.
I have no idea who this woman is, Marjorie, but I agree, she is terrific! Of course you can re-blog…the video can be found on You-Tube…I had nothing to do with it. I’m like you…very impressed with this woman’s ingenuity!
I have read two blogs in a row which feature old machines … the other being a group blog about their exhibition, and the viewer’s choice was won by a whole cloth quilt done on a 1957 Singer 201P. Who needs a special room and a modern machine!
I agree, Judy! We don’t need all the newest and ‘best’ gadgets to be creative. Some gorgeous quilts and garments were made long before electricity and rotary cutters became available to everyone.
How true … and some of us still remember the introduction of the rotary cutter, not to mention fusible webbing, stuff that dissolves, and fabric we can print on … and now stuff that dissolves that we can print on!
Come to think of it … computers and printers can be added to the list!
