New Machine added to the Sewing Room

 

 Recently I decided to get a  a Quilting machine. I look around and found one that I  was impressed with. It is a Janome MC6650. I haven't used it yet in the way I intended.... However I have used it in sewing and some small quilting. I really like the speed and the long throat.  I have a Long-arm frame  what to put it on. will let you all know how that works out.

New MASK Requirements

With the New Face covering requirements for this Year. I have started making  Three Layer Mask. I have been making Three layer mask for sometime. However Now I am making a New Mask type with Three Layers and An additional Filter pocket for extra protection when you feel like you need it. This Mask also has a nose wire for that extra fit around the nose. I still have other styles  available  these are the styles I have.

This is the  New 2021 Mask with three Layers

 

 

With or Without filter pocket

 I also have these types. 

this is a fitted with three layers,

This one is also available in three layers , this one is Reversible Mask

 

this is  Our Medical mask Type with ties.

 I do have another one that is like the Reversible one only is have a filter pocket and is not reversible.

One thing our shop tried to do is look for a variety  of Mask types to meet all the needs of  folks. We also make children's mask. Our  Prices of higher than the mass producers, however they do last longer and  hold up better in the wash. 

At Our shop you can PM us your email address. We can then send you more information on the Mask fabrics available and Prices. We do also sale lanyards for the mask. they are washable also.

If you are interested in one leave a Message in the comments. You can also find our shop at Auntie E's Boutique.

TIME TO GET STARTED

Have been very busy here. Life last year took some hits. Causing Me to put a hold on things planned.
We had a death , relocation of family, Hurricane damage,  hospitalization, falls, broken bones, strokes and  rehabs.  Had to cancel trips also. So as you can see, my life was very busy.

Today it looks like things are getting back on track. We are planning trips again. I have gotten to Vintage Sewing room by up and started to work on things. Hoping to get the business up and running by the end of this year. I think it is doable. Looking a a new Sewing machine. Will talk more about that when it happens.

Just wanted to give you an update.

Sewing is a Passion

I first learned how to really sew in Home Economics  at High School.   Remembering a class project in which we had to make a garment of our choosing. I chose a Plaid Cape. It was the 60's plaid was the in thing and so were Capes. The teacher told me that Plaid was very hard to work with. However,she let me do it. The cape came out perfectly lined and plaid seamless. Got an A on it. the first cloth garment I made.

My Grandmother was a Seamstress. I learn a lot from her also. She started out as a piece work sewer, working at a line factory. Later when the work stopped  she got a job working for a tailor. There was learned to really sew garments.  She opened her own place sometime later and continued her tailoring for years until her death. I inherited some of her sewing room items. Which I display in my Vintage Room room.

I guess it was in my genetic makeup to sew. Around the late seventies, Got my first Sewing machine, which I still have. My Husband bought it for me. Created several things on it. Enjoying everything I made. Not like Granny's  industrial Machine, mine had cams that created all kinds of designs.   It was a Montgomery Wards Machine. Still going strong. Around the Year 2000 I finally purchased a Viking Machine. It also has Designs stitches built into the machine. learned how to use them and enjoy it.

While in Germany I met a women who taught me to make Patterns of my own.  Started  creating my own designs. so much enjoyed this. To this day creating  my own patterns is my passion. Seeming to have an eye for this, something I never imagined doing. Have made aprons, dresses, skirts, as well as other clothing. Gradually purchasing other items to help with the designing.

Decided in my Retirement to Start a Sewing Business. Creating items that would be desired by others. Sometime ago I designed and made  Aprons for a Church. Had to make over a dozen.  Really enjoyed doing this. Now making different aprons again to sell.  Mostly local but soon online.  Here I will be posting some photos soon. Hope you will enjoy seeing them and soon buying them.

My Auntie E Vintage Sewing Room  name was created due to my Nephew Critter. He also loves the art of cooking and creating.  I am his great Aunt. So, decided to let them call me Auntie E instead of Great Aunt ( just sound better then Great aunt). Vintage Sewing room Because of my Granny, whom I loved greatly for introducing me to Sewing. Remembering visiting her and she was always sewing in her room. Some time ago I had my sewing room Painted to look like her place, a fond memory. The place in now long gone. but in  my mind I still see the place.
