I hope this fall weather is making you all as happy as I am. I love the beauty in the changing tree colors!

Many of you have requested that I teach a class again. We have scheduled this class at Little Foot Quilt Shop in November.

I will also be teaching again in Lancaster at the Quilt show. If you are not local to Pittsburgh, maybe I will see you in Lancaster in 2023. If your group would like to hold a class, please let me know and we can try to make it happen for you!

Register for a "Love Your Featherweight" hands on maintenance class on November 17. The Machine Lady is returning to teaching after taking some time off!

Happy Father's Day to all of my Featherweight Fathers out there!

I wanted to say hello and let you all know that I will be starting to do classes again very soon. I have arranged with the Little Foot Quilt Shop to have two classes in July. They are on July 24th and July 26.

You can purchase tickets on my website (www.machinelady.com) under Events. If you know of anyone who in interested in learning how to care for their featherweight, please let them know about the class. Each student will receive an oil and lubricant for their machine. You will bring your Featherweight and learn to care for your own machine.

Hello everyone. I have been super busy with life in the past year and although I haven't done much posting, my business is doing ok. I have continued to sell featherweights from my home and it has actually been nice to work with one person at a time. We are getting ready to go to our only show for 2021 which is the Kansas City Regional Quilt show in Overland Park Kansas. The show is June 17-19. I hope that if you are in that area that you will stop by the booth and say hello.

Happy Tax Day - I hope you all are staying safe. I wanted to thank you all for your interest in the penguin walking foot that we sold last week. Today I listed my tan featherweight for sale. We have been working on machines and as we get them serviced, I am going to put them on our Shop for sale. We have had five shows cancelled so I do have some inventory to sell. We have decided to offer a 10% discount on Sew Steady products. You can go to machinelady.com/shop to see what new things we have added for sale. I will be putting new items up for sale frequently as we get them ready to sell and get the photos taken. If you have questions an item, you can feel free to call me or send an email and I will do my best to get back to you in a timely manner. Thanks for supporting your small businesses during this time.

It is with great disappointment that I write this note. The Pittsburgh Creative Arts Festival, Lancaster Quilt Show, and MQX have all been cancelled and any Featherweight Classes that I was offering there have also been cancelled. Unfortunately, I was not responsible for the payments by students to any of these venues so I cannot offer a refund. You will have to work with the show coordinators to find out what they are going to do about that. Some of the show coordinators are looking at rescheduling at later dates in the year. Please subscribe to my website and you will get notification of the new events or changes. If you need any product, please keep me in mind as I have purchased a large amount of inventory to offer to you at these events.
