Sewing Machine

I am SO grateful for my sewing machine. I can only imagine how it would have been back in the "old days" to sew things by hand, and do a good job! How time intensive that must have been, too. In order to more thoroughly participate in the upcoming Pioneer Trek (with Jared as a chaperone "Ma" and "Pa"), I have sewn a slat-bonnet and matching apron. It took me over 4 hours to do both--and that was with an electric machine. I am thankful that Jared bought it for me as a Christmas gift a few years back...
