Good morning Susan, I love this artist and cartoon. It reminds me that working together saves us all.

Good morning Ms... Susan. It's raining today and I have no great plans other than reading an how to book and spending time with my family. May I have a cup and wish my best to the group.

Just a few shots from todays pride celebration in Louisville Kentucky.

May I have a cup Ms. Cushing? I'm getting ready for our local pride parade. This will be my 2nd parade and my first time wearing a kilt in public. Wish me courage.

#cave #nationalpark @durocpig.bsky.social came up for a visit. Mammoth Cave National Park is an hour and a half away. Visit it.

Try this one.

My peonies have bloomed for the first time!

If you're friends with a writer, this is both true and a warning.

I'm out of the house, touching grass beside the Ohio River. 74 degrees and beauty all around. Is walking in beauty, mindfulness?

#sewing #sewingmachine #vintagesewingmachine I found and bought two very nice parlor treadles. A Dressmaker and Free Number 5. They are in very good condition.

#vintagesewingmachine #sewingmachine Wheeler& Wilson sewing machine. The oldest pattern number I can find is Dec 23 1868. It does have the original glass pressure foot. And a few paper bobbins labeled star bobbin style g. American thread Co.

#Sewing #vintagesewingmachines I picked this 1924 Singer 99 today.

I found where the spoons went.

Yay!

#sewing Sometimes it's nice being known as the local sewing machine guy. I was asked if I was interested in a sewing machine and cabinets that were going to be thrown out. They wouldn't take payment. Singer 503A with cabinet. 1930's Art Deco cabinet and not shown, 19 teens Singer treadle cabinet.

#food A gift from a friend.

#sewing machine A lucky find at Goodwill.

#NoKings Louisville, KY An hour before the event. Most people showed up around 2pm. Booths were set up over a wide area .

#vintagesewingmachine One of my latest machines. A Brother labeled Deluxe.

#sewing #vintagesewingmachines A short history of the Singer 66 I installed in my treadle. It arrived in a shattered because Fex Ex had used it to break other packages. Using a lot of oil and some bartenders friend for some rusty chrome it is an in use machine.

This is the Singer 66 I'm putting in a treadle.

#vintagesewingmachines #sewingmachines @wandawalker.bsky.social Self care.

I took a riverboat ride with a cutie tonight.

A better photo. I have a second downstairs. Great machines but families inherit them and don't want to keep them.

# vintagesewingmachine Yes the motor works, but I miss using a treadle.

#vintagesewingmachines #sewing This was the second year I've helped the Louisville branch of the American Sewing Guild at the State Fair. We were busy enough I didn't take many photos. Mrs. L holds a petting zoo of vintage sewing machines. We let sewers try most of them out.

Louisville KY. This is at the very start of the event and more people attend than expected. They kept coming...
