Dusted the sewing machine after extracting it from Middlest's bedroom, tightened a few screws, filled a bobbin and threaded it up. Starting some more basting now and hoping to do proper sewing soon. I absolutely love my sewing machine.

Some sewing machines we’ve spotted on our travels that make us think of Sara Wesker & the singing strikers. Found these in Islington, Austria, Edinburgh & at the Fashion City exhibition at @londonmuseum.bsky.social
