Good to know, thanks!

I got my walking foot from sewclassicshop both for my 301 and my Kenny. I have looked at the one you referenced though, seems like that have a lot of stuff for many different vintage machines.

Argh poison ivy? Is that from the back garden?

Can't wait to see you kick it with that Juki. Expecting many lovely quilts!

[ofenjen]

Yeah, I think the poison ivy is from trimming weeds with my bare hands. Because I'm a genius!

I've ordered all kinds of random things from Sewing Parts Online. They seem to have everything!

I so can't wait for the Juki. ALL THE QUILTING will be happening!

I love the summer kid factor in my life too. It's nice to see them all the time. I am doing school online but not getting much done compared to when everyone is at school and college :) But that's ok! :)

Mostly, I'm running my son around everywhere, but it is nice to have them here. He had a big end of year party over the weekend, so my house was full of teenagers for two days. Fortunately, all his friends are really great! ;)

Must say, I didn't notice any 'gross neon signs' indicating poison ivy!
Can't wait to see how your hair turns out! I do the same...just color with what is now natural color. I am actually a strawberry blonde (more on the strawberry side) but find the sun tends to bleach out the strawberry so I just go with blonde.
My sewing machine, which is a Brother, is over 24 years old. It was bought when Satia was a baby (god I'm old...) and the only problem I'm seeming to have is finding bobbins. The ones I just purchased are not 'tall' enough and those are the second set that had this same problem. Any suggestions? I no longer have a clue as to where the booklet that came with the sewing machine is.
HELLO KITTY!!!

I'm relieved that no one could actually see the poison ivy. It's finally starting to clear up, but I was still self conscious about it!

I don't generally like coloring my hair because I don't like the way dye feels, but I've been reassured that henna has a different feel and will help with all the breakage I've been having, so fingers crossed!!

For your sewing machine, look on the back. There should be a model number. If you find that, you can go to the link I shared above for Sewing Parts Online, put that in with "bobbin" and it should give you the kind of bobbin you need. There are several different classes and the size and shape definitely matter.

I love colouring my hair. I wish I was as brave now as when I was young, it was pink and blue and purple (not atvthe same time though) . Will be interested in seeing the henna , never done that kind before.
Also sorry I called you Jen in my video. Ivhave an aunty Jennifer who will call Jen and it slipped out... sorry x

[ofenjen]

I was never much for coloring my hair, but I did keep it permed when I was a teenager. Big 80s hair and all that! My daughter was the brave one, doing bleached, blue and a variety of different styles.

You are more than welcome to call me Jen, most of my friends do. ;)
