Auction Site
In recent months we have realized that we too are becoming "antique" and came to the conclusion that it is time for us to retire again. We will once again enjoy a Museum room at home and put some things in storage pending their final disposition. However, our collection of sewing machines has grown to over 90 and we do not have space to store these and other large items like spinning wheels, etc. In order to get them to a wide variety of people who may want to have and enjoy these items, we are auctioning them off this month. You and others you know who have similar interests can see what is available by visiting the SLOCAL Estate Auctions Network online at https://slocalestateauctions.com/ from now until our auction closes on 30 November. We hope you enjoy the visit and encourage others you know to do the same.
If you haven't been,

try out this
Virtual Tour
(This is a test version, best seen on a monitor, not your cell phone. If you have comments or suggestions, please send them to jsewcraftm@gmail,com.)
There are seven connected "scenes" in this tour. You can click on the arrows to move from one scene to another, You can also use your mouse to move around manually and zoom in or out. In any scene, there will be a set of labeled markers identifying where the arrow will take you or the subject of other "hotspots" which give you more information including more detailed images or videos. Hovering over the symbols on the bottom of any scene will explain what what each symbol is for. Enjoy your tour!
If you have questions or have some items you wish to donate, please contact us by phone (805-704-2231) or by email (JSewCraftM@gmail.com) or by leaving a message on this website. Be sure to leave your phone number or email address so that we can call you back.
This is the book that started it all. Judy wrote it more than 30 years ago for school-age children to learn to sew.
Now you can have a digital (PDF) copy for free. Just send us an email requesting it, and we will send you a link that you can use to download the 386-page book to your computer.
