Life in Limington, Maine.

Well it is 3 days after Thanksgiving and my company has left.  Here at Cliffwood, life goes on but winter is right around the corner and so is Christmas.  I plan to hunker down and do some Christmas sewing.

Because I haven't blogged for several years, I'll bring my friends up to date.  I retired in March of 2011 and enjoy retirement by gardening in the warm month and sewing, quilting in the winter months.  My newest passion is learning to sew on a treadle sewing machine which is a 1929 Singer treader.  So far I have made my granddaughter an oversized dolly blanket.  In addition, my husband has purchased a second treadle machine for me.  It is a 1914/15 Redeye Singer treadle machine and he picked up a fancy wooden cabinet for it.  I am so happy about my treading experiences!

So, please stay tuned for more as I blog about my days in the rest of 2012!

Yours fondly,
Grammie Donna
