When we go traveling, I always end up wanting to sew. But my machine is a piece of furniture and weighs as much as I do.
However, I found a portable sewing machine.
It is a 1900 Singer made in England. Which means it is two years older then my treadle sewing machine I use everyday. The cool thing is that it uses the same bobbin, shuttle, and bobbin winder for both. It weighs a ton but it means it can go with us when we travel. It does not take any electricity.
It is a hand crank! Which means I can take it anywhere with us and have a sewing machine. Even Douglas Fir National Campground or Elwha River National Campground. Elwha is actually less primitive then Douglas Fir, it has running water for part of the year.
I can just envision myself at our picnic table sewing under the evergreens at both! Yes, I know, be aware of bears! (Yes, there are bears in the vicinity of both)
