I am so incredibly honored + excited to have inherited my grandmas sewing machine š„¹
As a little girl, I remember going to the store with my grandma, picking out a pattern, and fabric. Sheād teach me step by step on how to follow a pattern, cut it, and slowly introduced sewing. My other grandma also fostered this skill and introduced quilting and stitching at a very young.
Although our projects would end up in my grandmas finishing them, sewing is always a skill I wanted to pursue.
As I was setting everything up, I couldnāt help but think about the HOURS my grandma spent sitting in the very same chair with this very machine.
It isnāt lost on me the skill level that she has for sewing and I can only hope to be half of an artist as she. Tonight I threaded this machine and did a couple practice stitches. She didnāt let me down as the machine slowly hummed and created a beautiful line of stitches.
This is only the beginning, this machine and I. What a blessing to welcome her to her new home.
What should we name her? š«¶š¼
