Vintage Sewing Medley


This is a few vintage sewing goodies I've gathered together...I would love to set up my antique sewing machine on top of my old treadle machine table and have these little goodies all arranged on it, but alas, I just have no room for it...My treadle machine table and antique Singer Sewing Machine are tucked away out in our little storage building, all lonesome and unseen .... LOL.... So, I'm debating selling this entire vignette in my online Yard Sale.... If I do decide to sell, I'll post a notice....but for now, I'm just racking my brains , trying to think of ways I can sneak my table and machine in here and arrange it somehow....Oh, hubby wouldn't care...in fact he would love it ...He comments all the time on how it's a shame we just don't have more room in our little trailer here....Now is when I miss my 5 bedroom , 2 story , circa 1901 Farm House ......~Sigh~

  2. Robin,
    My sewing machine is an end table in the living room. We have the same living room but I know you have that larger entertainment center...what type of endtables do you have?

    I love my house, too, I just need a bit more room, also. DH and I want to get a small ranch home or double wide. We're only thinking a little over 1,000 sg ft, which isn't a LOT more than we have now, however, the plan is to put a basement under us so we'll have that area, too! Jer and I dream of the day when we can have our own little spaces in the basement for his tools and my crafts :) Oh, and I would do anything to have space for a hoosier in my kitchen!

    I'm sure you'll figure something out...find a place for your machine. Just sit and look around and think. Sometimes I just sit in a room and stare at something and finally come up with the solution. It might only mean moving a couple things around!

    Good luck!

  3. What a lovely collection of sewing goodies! Is the little thing above the buttons a sewing needle case?

  4. Robin, I hope you read this or anyone else: how do you attach clipart or pics from the web to your blog? I've googled it and everything, when Mandie says to click and "save" where do you save it? I know it's probably simple but I'm just learning and sometimes it does get overwhelming. also Robin your sewing items are so neat!
    thanks Rondell

  6. Hi Robin
    As usual, your blog perks me up!
    Great goodies! My house is small too. Always used to think I would like a larger house again but then I would have to clean more!
