A Sewing Machine Makeover!

A few months ago, a friend of mine visited a flea market and found an old Singer sewing machine. Knowing that I love vintage sewing machines, she bought it and gifted it to me. However, the machine had seen better days. It did not sew, and needed quite a bit of repair work to make it sew. The condition of the paint and logo were saying too. After weighing my options, I devised a plan to give the machine a whole new lease on life!

Sew Much Fun - FREE Button Quilt Block!

Welcome to this week's stop on the Sew Much Fun Tour !

Button quilt block pattern

I have loved seeing all the blocks in the tour so far, and this week I'm adding a button!

This is part of a larger project with dozens of other pattern designers! Each week (for a whole year!), a new FREE quilt block pattern is released with a sewing theme. Each block is just 6" square, so if you sew along, you'll have a wonderful sewing themed quilt at the end! (Don't miss the giveaway at the end of the post too!)
