I have taken it into it the garden to sew a little …and sun a little. Still heavy, but honestly a joy to use in every sense. Somewhat more portable than a lot of antique machines. This little Singer is a 3/4 size machine. I thought I would share with you all the beauty and wonder of a hand crank machine. I am enjoying the last hurrah of Autumnal sun. This gorgeous little 3/4 Handcrank machine is what I am sewing on today! Usually I am using a treadle but I could not resist taking this machine outside and sewing with this hand crank today. Being outside in the sun, I find, is best for regulating sleep, and inmproving motivation, so this is what I did.Īfter seeing Alex Askaroff post a similar machine he had just pruchased today, I was reminded of this little beauty I had put away. I was feeling in a bit of a funk due to lack of sleep (work related) earlier in the week. She just recently tied the knot, here she is a gorgeous looking bride!Īlthough she is no direct relative to Elias Howe as far a s I know. It caught my attention in a different way this time as my new SIL had the surname Howe. Here is an abbreviated version from Alex Askaroff and his Sewalot site. It is funny how ones attention can be refocused according to event in ones own life. Last night I was reading the story of Elias Howe, courtesy of Alex Askaroff.
