Well I thought it was about time I taught myself how to use this darn thing

I've been thinking about making some cosies and things for the piggies, but I thought I'd practice first on making cage liners. Simples, right? :roll: :))

After cutting up the material to size and losing a few pins (I found one by sitting on it :eek:) I was ready to roll!

I was on so much of a roll, I decided to make two :D

Wonderful job Tim! Barry seems pleased :nod: Laughed so much with Larry! Hahaha

@VickiA I must say that sewing machine is just beautiful!


I love the old Singers, you will never get a better make.

@Teddybear22 and @Tiamolly123 these old machines are definitely beautiful, and so reliable (mine is still going strong after 60'years. Just a shame you need muscles like Popeye's to be able to lift it into the table. But I'm sure it doesn't do half what @Tim's one does - so many buttons....
 
Well done @Tim. Not sure I could use a complicated beast of a machine like that one. Here is mine :

You can't beat the old singers! My Grandmother had one and we got rid of it for the cost of 4 ice cream cones from the ice cream man when we cleared her house to sell it. He had a bargain.
 
Mine is an Ikea one, but I have no patience to sew anymore so I just lazily ordered liners from ziggy's piggys :)
