Presents and projects
















I wish I could say that I made the jacket with the Singer machine, but the jacket was actually finished last month and I only got the machine a few days ago. The jacket is Simplicity 4047, made in aquamarine velvet, with a taupe lining. I made it to go with a gold-coloured lace wiggle dress I bought awhile ago.
The Singer was a birthday present from my roommate. It's serial number dates it back to 1930, and it still works! She also got me a couple boxes of attachments, but they haven't arrived yet. I'm really hoping they will include the 'Ruffler' foot. I'm thinking that I'll test out the machine on the shirt from the same pattern set.
