Thought I might show you a little corner in my house. The sewing machine I bought from a trash and treasure market for $5 (bargain…) the needle keeper is an old one that belongs to my mum..the wall hanging in the background is one of my projects that was featured in Australian Country Threads magazine last year..the doll is a design from Whiskers and Wings(Australian designer Phillipa Morris)…the cotton reels are from an op shop..the little crochet tub holds a tape measure.. the watering can is a pincushion made by my friend Melinda…and the odds and ends are from various op shops and my MIL sewing box. They all sit on an old radio that we picked up from a garage sale many years ago.
So just a little corner in my house that holds so much.
have a good week!

ps did you know…. I love walking, especially around my area which has lots of hills and lovely homes and gardens to look at.
Hi Gail!
What a cosy little corner! It just wouldn’t look the same with a modern sewing machine would it? I wonder what people will do when our sewing machines become ‘vintage’?
Those cakes you made look so yummy! Guess that means its your turn to bring cakes on Friday!!
Happy stitching,
Nicky
Hi Gail, Thanks for showing us a little corner in your home. The little crochet tub pictured must have come from Mrs Martins, because my friend Jenny makes those for the shop. I noticed Karen had some new stock of those when I was last in the shop.I think I might buy some to give to some friends on our next weekend away.Your picture was the perfect reminder that my friends would love them.
Hey Gail – great display – yum. Love your “$5 bargain”. Congrats on being in Country Threads AND Homespun!!
