Happy Sewing Machine Day! and a Request

 Happy Sewing Machine Day!

Here are a couple of photos of a few of my favorite sewing machines.  This one is my most used hand crank.

1927 Singer 15 hand crank

This is my favorite electric sewing machine.

1939 Singer 221 'Betty Sue'

Betty Sue will be getting a workout this afternoon, as I sew several strips of faux piping binding together for some mug mats.

This is my favorite treadle. 

Post WWII Japanese 'Victor'

I've had some of you pray for my nieces son, Miller, over the years.  Miller has a mitochondrial disease, called Leigh's. 

Miller and his mommy

Miller's disease is rare, his sub-set of the disease is even more rare.  Miller has already survived longer than normal, and they are trying to raise funds for research for a cure or treatment. Please check out this blog post from my niece, Jacque.  Any funds contributed will be greatly appreciated, not only for Miller, but other kids with this disease.
