Her Name Shall Be Called "MaMoo"

How many sewing machines do you actually need?  The truth is, ONE...and maybe a backup when that ONE is at the spa for an R & R .  Well, and maybe another one for guest sewers...and don't forget the Featherweight.  Everyone needs a Featherweight. And maybe just one more....

...the one your friend found in a thrift shop on her trip to Tahoe, and  brings it back for you.

Her Name Shall Be Called MaMoo (pronounced "Ma - MOO")

MaMoo was my Great Grandmother's nick name.  Mary Elizabeth Graff was the very first quilter in my life.

I can remember as a little girl spending weekends at MaMoo's house.  Her friends would come over and they'd sit around a big quilting frame set up in the dining room and quilt and gossip.  I'd sit under the frame and just watch the needles moving in-and-out (and listen to all the gossip.)

Happy Birthday to Me!  (March is my birthday month.)

Yes, I do have five sewing machines!  It's like a sickness....
Miss Ellie is my traveling companion.
Millie and I spend the most time together.
The Twins are for guest sewers (we have a group that meets once a week.)
Now we have The G-Ma...pulling the family together.
