Blanket Progress

I have started the second baby blanket, this one on Grandma’s Singer 66-16. It needed a new felt

and to do a proper job on the blanket, a walking foot

The machine sews a line just beautifully!

The clips are Getta Grip Sewing Clips. You can get them here. Highly recommend them; if I’m sewing regular fabric and not something like minky, that’s pretty much all I use…so much easier than pins!

    It appears as though the cats have also acquired a new blanket through this project? The material is very soft and the cats really like it!

    It is the perfect material for a cat blanket! The sort of thing they would want to knead on 🙂 They deserve a baby blanket just as much as a baby would.

    Where did you get those cool clips? So nice to see such a beautiful machine still in use.

    The clips are Getta Grip Sewing Clips. I saw the ad in the back of a sewing magazine (Threads, maybe?). They work really well and seem to be holding up well, too. I got them online at their website, http://www.gettagripclip.com. Highly recommend them!
