Love Affair


This is a life long love affair.  
One that is deep in tradition.
 Full of memories. 
 Rich with history.


This is my Valentine's Day gift from my husband.


Yes, I did help him out a bit.


No, he didn't utter a word of angst.


Singer's Retro 160 year Limited Edition Sewing Machine.


My heart is still going pitter patter.


This beauty is still close by.


Gently resting for another daily sewing project.  Guaranteed to never skip a stitch.

Happy Valentine's Day

coolest looking machine ever! I prefer non-electronic sewing machines...technology scares me sometimes. However, my hubby gave me a Kindle Fire and I spent all day trying to figure it out...beats my stone-age Kindle any time. Love your new machine! =D

That Valentine's card is so ...SEW...perfect for you!
That machine is so neat. I didn't know that they made those. How sweet of your husband.
The vintage one is great, too.

Happy Valentine's day

Happy Valentines Day Renee. Sounds kinda redundant after the day you had. What a fabulous Valentine gift and what a generous husband. I didn't even know that they came out with that. Love it.

Renee! I've been looking at those machines? What do you think of it? Would you recommend it to someone who sews alot? Is it easy to use and see the settings? I have a zillion questions but I don't have room. LOL My hubby says I can get one or I can get a new dollhouse. I have a perfectly good sewing machine. what do you think?
