Bird on the Border - My blog shares my experiences with patchwork, stitching, family ,friends and caravanning
When I started teaching Home Economics way back in 1980 I dreamed of being lucky enough to own a Pfaff. Well this year it’s my early Christmas present. I know there are many good machines out there but after some testing I decided on the Pfaff Quilt Expressions 720. I hope I have made the right decision. It’s a beautiful machine.
Every year our family and the in laws go to Movie World’s White Christmas. We’ve been going for 10 years now. Each year a Christmas fabric is chosen and we get sewing. Everyone has an out fit using the fabric . A new one every year of course. This year this is it. The new machines first project. I do very little dressmaking now so it’s not my favourite sewing genre any more. I once made everything we all wore including men’s trousers , I must have been crazy. It’s hardly worth dressmaking these days.
