Singer

So I spent Friday through today with my grandmother. My grandmother couldn't remember when the Singer sewing machine she has was made. So I found the Serial number on the right hand side of the machine and called Singer to find out.

It was made in Elizabeth, New Jersey on Oct 22, 1926. The factory was named Elizabethport. I didn't think to get a picture of it. But when i go back on the 26th of this month I will get a picture of it and post it to here.

If you do not want to call Singer you can go on their website and look up the serial number yourself. I didn't realize this until after I had already called customer service. Here is the link.

Henry's Travels


So I am making a quilt called Henry's Travels.
I am using the Dresedn Plate block since it looks like a wagon wheel. In each block I am writing the name of a place I have been. Here is a preview of what I have done so far.
