The new SY sewing machine was made with a certain kind of person in mind: someone inspired by metre fabrics and home furnishing but who doesn’t necessarily know a bobbin from a bobby pin. It’s sewing made easy, for the beginner in all of us – at a price that doesn’t put creativity out of reach. Mimicking old-fashioned sewing machines with its gooseneck appearance, SY is a three-quarter size machine that’s compact, portable and easy to store. But its smaller size doesn’t mean we cut any corners. SY sewing machine is loaded with functions, features and a straightforward illustrated user’s manual so it’s easy to get started.

The Dunean mill is unique because it is the first mill in the area to be made with tan brick. Also, note the decorative cornices on some of the roof sections.
Although the neighborhood no longer depends solely on the mill for jobs, the Dunean Mills community is actively maintaining its neighborhood identity, as well as trying to revitalize and improve quality of life.
Gavril means "believer in God" in Slavic. He is made from tea-dyed osnaburg with a lightly needle sculpted nose and embroidered eyes. His lower lip is stuffed and appliquéd. His beard is sewn on. Gavril is wearing a coat made from a tea-stained vintage chenille bedspread in pale seafoam trimmed with three mismatched mother of pearl buttons. His pajama pants are made from a beautiful piece of vintage drapery fabric with a subtle taupe floral design. On his lap is a pouch made from an old embroidered doily tied with a piece of vintage cotton twill seam tape.

Uses a variety of red, gold, olive and chartreuse silks and a little brocade flower in the center. I think the photo does it justice, but this is stunning in person.

This sewing kit or "housewife" was used by Ammi Hawks. Born in New York in 1834, he came to the Wisconsin Territory with his family at the age of three. His father, Nelson P. Hawks, established a stagecoach inn in Delafield in 1846, now restored and preserved by the Hawks Inn Historical Society. According to the Society, Ammi Hawks was a quartermaster with the 28th Wisconsin Regiment during the Civil War and carried this housewife with him in service.
This object is the property of the Hawks Inn Historical Society. The image is part of the Wisconsin Decorative Arts Database, a digital archive of Wisconsin objects. For more information, see content.wisconsinhistory.org/u?/wda,2268

Lino Cut technique with the use of my chosen pastel toned colur palette-the vintage floral image is built up through the variety of colur.
Here, I was inspired by nature, texture and the theme of decay. I used different textile techniques (couching, french knot, seed stitch, weaving and trapunto quilting). I used liquid latex to create texture by forming holes in it, which suggests the idea of decay.
