Presser Foot (TT359)

Yesterday's blip was entirely natural, so today, something entirely mechanical.  There was a discussion at the Croome blipmeet about sewing machines and Gill talking about the 30+ year old Bernina she had just bought.  Today she finished off a gift she has been making for our granddaughter (Ariadne) who has a birthday this weekend. The doll's clothes are quite small so this machine, being smaller than her modern one, was easier to use.

The machine is an engineer's delight.  Entirely mechanical, the stitches are selected via a set of cams and there is not a sensor or stepper motor anywhere. The paint has yellowed over the decades, so the colour balance is about as good as I could get it.

Yesterday was our son's birthday - his gift - a positive LFT test.

Thanks to Sheol for hosting tiny Tuesday.
