Sewing away from home

When we are away I still love to sew especially if there is a day with out company.  It keeps me busy and productive after the cookies and pies are done.

In steps this old Singer.  I had it serviced and the staff expressed their surprise that I would or maybe could use such a thing when it neither reverse stitches of zigzags.  Horrors!  It is wonderful thing and makes beautiful neat little stitches.  It also has the cleverest bobbin winder ever.  It doesn't like the giant spools of thread though so I put the spool in a jar behind and thread it through a big hole in a spare bobbin.  All good.
