Three Things: The Sewing Machine Edition

2014 February 10

Three Things Banner

This week I’m thinking about sewing machines. In fact there is one, right this moment, staring at me from just behind my left shoulder as I write this. (The joys of multi-purpose rooms: sewing room and office. And did I mention bedroom?) Lest it acquire midnight superpowers due to woeful neglect, let’s just keep the peace and write an ode to my sewing machine. Or one of the three below. Your choice.
