***January Photo Contest--Vintage--Preliminary Thread #1***

[urbanhermit]

Diamond_Dog was the winner of the November contest and decided that the theme for the January Contest will be "Vintage"

Any image that evokes days gone by. It could be a photo of an object, like an old toy or collectible …..old machine, old tool …… a piece of clothing or jewelry ….. a beautiful old building, house, church, or business ….. an old car …..something you found in a thrift store …..a photo of a place where you had some fond memories…..these are a few examples.

Please vote in all three threads! And do let us know what you think; we always love your comments!

6. "La Vencedora"

I have used a Singer model from a little later than the 128 all my life. And I also took a few turns on my grandmother's treadle powered Singer. My own machine runs on electricity, but is otherwise capable of few of the thousands of embroidery stitches that modern machines can do. My mother and sister invested in more complex machines than mine, and sewed less and less. And I jave continued to sew place mats, nightgowns, potholders, and clothes in general. No machine is more sensitively geared than a good Singer: You can slow down on a curve and speed up on the straightaway.
