While visiting this past weekend, my MIL (mother in law) brought me over her old sewing machine as a loaner. It's an old Kenmore ZigZag, and I'm guessing it's vintage for sure (maybe Jan could comment on how old it is?) It's great for a beginner like me (well, beginner machine user, as I've been hand sewing for years), as many of the new electronic machines have so many options that it can get complicated.
After some playing around (and a fun trip to Fabricana), I made this baby ribbon blankie similar to one Lexi was given as a baby. I'm really pleased with the results. Next up on the list - pillow covers!
ETA: OK, I lied. Next up was burp cloths. Super easy and quick to make. I'll tackle pillow covers soon.
I've decided to get my little etsy shop up and running again. Click on over to ducklyandjuicy designs to see what I've been whipping up lately.
