My first fabric on paper mixed media collage from Jane LaFazio's class forms the central motif. As a non-conformist, my circles (the theme of the assignment) broke open to reveal a path into the clockwork of the universe. A pendulum swings to mark the start of spring. (The edge finish of the quilt is not yet decided or complete.)

This image is taken from an album produced by the world famous shipbuilding and engineering firm of Hawthorn Leslie. The album gives us a fascinating glimpse of life at the company's shipyard at Hebburn from the late 1930s to the 1960s. There are remarkable images of the men at work in the yard and a poignant series showing the terrible damage caused during the Second World War to HMS Kelly, one of Hawthorn Leslie's best loved ships.
This particular collection of images follows the Birth and ultimate Death of a ship. From the craft and pride in its production and the joy in its performance, to the devastation and price of its destruction.
A blog about this fascinating collection can been viewed here on the Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums website.

A very odd machine on display at the Reynolds Alberta Museum (of transport), also extremely difficult to photograph where it is displayed in the museum:
A 1949 Multi-Ped, a one-off: "1949, Edward (Ward) Snell of Edmonton wanted to design a machine that would travel over muskeg and rough terrain. Wheeled vehicles often got bogged down under these conditions, so Snell made his tractor walk rather than roll. The "legs" move independently, making the tractor walk.
Along with Aimee Dragon, who owned a repair shop in Wetaskiwin, Snell built this prototype between 1947 and 1949.
Engine: Case Model R tractor, 4 cylinder Waukesha
Horsepower: 20 hp @ 1425 rpm
Bore & Stroke: 83 x 102 mm (3-1/4 x 4 inches)
The one on the left is the tucker, or tuck maker. You can see how it works in one of the instruction sheets.
The one in the middle is for under braiding. You can see how this works in one of the instruction sheets too. Very nifty!
I'm nut sure what the plate on the right is called - looks a bit like a guide for attaching lace, perhaps?
This thing is so retro it hurts. Zoe said, "It looks like a rocket!" I brought this home from Gram's cabin after she died. It is sans table, but appears to have its own rubber feet so it can be set anywhere. I don't know if it works yet. It has to be from the 50s, though.
A truly marvelous coffee-vending machine. There's even a camera inside the machine which is linked to a monitor -- this allows one to see the whole brewing process! April 2006.

I found this in an antique shop in hamilton missouri. I gave $35 for it. It came with 1 left hand needle plate. it runs smooth and easy. works great on the treadle. It treadles effortlessly.
I just got done installing it in this treadle cab. that i got in Desmoines Ia this summer. I've been wanting a zig zag machine that looks old and this fits the ticket. I have another one but it is newer and was going to take a bit more modification to make it work in a treadle. this one didnt. This one looks a lot like the Nicchi BU zig zag machines I've seen.
