Vintage Machines / Re: Show and tell time - lets see some oldies!

The serial number is 14088421. I don't use it much but wouldn't want to lose it. A friend has recently offered to buy one of them but having looked at them both this weekend I can't part with either of them. The other one has a rounded case (bentwood?) and is younger I think? I also have a small machine, possibly a child's, and I will try to send a photo of that later. I would dearly love an old treadle machine. Interestingly, if you look on ebay, all these old machines are 'preowned!!'. Funny, that.... :D

This is my old singer (one of two I have). I have tried to put a photo up before unsuccessfully. I don't know much about it so any information anyone might have would be lovely. If this photo works I try sending its serial number next. (Where are the 'children' when you need them for tech support?) :[

Are the red/blue/green/orange knotty ones still there? How much are they please?

That looks lovely. I've never even tried anything like this, but I do need lots of lamp shades for my new house and I had considered trying to make at least one. I have the low energy bulbs so can you use any material? And can you paint onto the fabric? This may sound basic but any help would be lovely. Thanks

Thank you. That makes sense. I don't know why demented fairy hates bunting so much but I'm less than fond of it myself after my daughter's wedding so I quite understand.

I'm fairly new to Lincoln and missed the Steampunk festival last year. However I'm planning to go along this year. Looks brilliant. Are you involved?

Hello. Lovely to be here. I joined a couple of weeks ago and I've just had my new (to me) sewing table delivered so I thought I'd finally say hello. I'm very much a novice but enjoying the process of cutting up perfectly good fabric and joining it back together in a different order so it looks lovely.
