Look at them all!
My Mum and I went out to visit the biggest "junk" collection we have ever visited. It's on an old dairy farm out in the country not far from our wee farm. It's called Granny and Grumpa's and there is building after building full of stuff. Unbelievable quantities of stuff. These photos were of all the mini and toy sewing machines. Would you look at them all!? The funny thing was that even if I wanted to buy one of these little babies, we never did see anyone that might want to sell one to me. But we were escorted around the barns and buildings by a very friendly orange cat.
Thanks Carla for reminding me about this place and you will have to check it out for yourself because my description will just never do it justice. You have to see it. Really! Which little machine would you take home?

Oh, lovely. I want that pink and white one named Crystal and the teal hand crank.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, crazy!
ReplyDeleteI'd take the tan Singer. It looks just like my vintage Singer 500:)
ReplyDeleteI would take the Sew-ette. What a fun place!
ReplyDeleteMy, that must have been fun! The cat wouldn't sell you anything? What's with that?
ReplyDeleteOh my word! My heart is going crazy! I'm coming!! Our oldest boy bought us tickets to the Canucks game on the 25th. On our way home, we are stopping there. Never dreamed he'd have sewing machines. I guess I better bring a little more cash than I had thought ; )
