What is your favorite fabric to work with when you are sewing?

I like to sew cotton fabrics that are not too thin or too thick because my machine is very old 🙂

That's lovely 😊. I am sure you have good experience with it! I am hoping to get a machine sometime next year. I have always been very interested in sewing.

Yes, sewing is a very nice activity and it attracts me a lot, but almost everything I do with my machine is mending or making adjustments. I would like to do a course to learn more

This is an excellent plan! I hope you get the opportunity to find lots of useful tutorials online and I am sure there must be online sewing courses! Best of luck.

Oh you've got to try that out. I think you'll enjoy sewing quite a bit.

Thank you Nine! I have only done basic stitching but embroidery looks stunning. It will be a while before I get into it seriously. Hahaha for now plates are full 🤣

I was wondering how you were going to juggle everything. I have 2 machines. One does embroidery, but I've never used it for that. I'm too used to doing it by hand, the slow way. 😂

Ahh the patience you must have developed along the way! I think I will continue playing around with using my hands and not entirely rely on a machine. Having that mind and task connection will also feel more organic with using hands

As for me my eyesight is bad , I gave this up a long time ago.

Sofs-su your photography is already awesome! I am sure even without sewing, there are many great things you can do consistently over time without eyesight hindrances 🤗😊

The older machines are the best, imo.

Yeah, that's true

Easy to repair and they last. Mine can't take really heavy fabrics or leather, need an industrial sewing machine for that.

Mine was one of my grandmother's sewing machines. I always loved it because it has a wooden base with drawers to save little things

Is that a Singer sewing machine, by chance? I know the kind of base you're talking about. That's so special that it was your grandmother's.

hahahah very good guess, I had thought about it but I have a bad machine hahahah very good.

Hello omaira, I thought of many probable things. It looks like a person mounted on a platform, attached to a pole. They also look like two skis that got stuck. After that I remembered the great resemblance between presser feet and skis 😄

A person mounted on a pole, now I'm wondering how they were mounted on the pole. Is it because they got their skis stuck?

Yes, it would be a strange scenario, but you can see those silhouettes like a person in profile sitting on something that looks like skis
Maybe he was skiing ans of a sudden a storm came that made him break loose and fly up to that pole 😄

🤣 Great elaboration, love it! I had to ask because...."tarred, feathered, and mounted on a pole while rode out of town" came to mind.🤪
