About Jenny at Sew-Classic
I'm a true gear-head by nature. In fact, I was practically born with tools in hand! I work in an engineering related field by day, and I've been enjoying my sewing hobby for over 35 years.
This love of sewing, appreciation of well designed and quality built machines along with my proverbial desire to tinker, have lead me to own, refurbish, use, ENJOY and share vintage sewing machines.
I am located in Northern Ohio, and when I'm not sewing or wrenching on sewing machines, I enjoy photography (formerly motorcycle riding) & spending time with family & friends.

In the Middle of the Road- Double Lemon and Key Lime
I was on my way home from running some errands, and as I turned into my neighborhood, the Schwan's delivery truck was leaving. I don't purchase from them, but I see the trucks in my neighborhood all the time. Anyhow, I drove down a couple of blocks and right at the corner of my street I spotted some boxes in the middle of the road. Hmmmmm....I HAD to stop and see what it was.... ... << MORE >>
Yep, It's GOLD!
| I am just so enamored with the color of this machine. It's a gold metallic finish, and I just love it. This Morse sewing machine is a badged, HA-1 type 15 "Clone", made in Japan.... (LOADS OF PHOTOS...and more details...) |

A Few of my Favorite things.......
My mom found this cute little sewing machine music box at an estate sale. It plays "My Favorite Things". The flash conversion makes the music sound "tinny", but I'm not enough of a compuuter person to even want to try and fix it. In person, it sounds quite nice.
""Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens..."
So, what would the lyrics to this melody be for you? What are a few of your favorite things??
