Hi everyone.
I just had a quick question...
Do any of you collect crafty things just for the heck of it?
I'm in this faze of wanting all things vintage/antique sewing related like:
needles
Singer machine parts
pin cushions
darning tools
etc.
Then putting them in frames/shadow boxes with old lace or fabrics in the background.
When we move into a house and I have my own sewing area, I plan to get a large pretty bookcase/custom display cabinet and putting antique sewing machines on it to show off their beauty. I just love the look of the OLD Singers and Dressmakers. I have an old Dressmaker that I was using till I got a new machine and want to display that but it's HEAVY! Like 20 lbs or so. LOL.
What do you collect?
