It's been 3 months since my last video. I wanted to share my plans for the channel in the near future, and I fixed up my antique White Rotary treadle machine for use on an upcoming project!

As the immortal Freddie Mercury once said "I want it all!" Go for it Maire. I'll watch your channel, no matter what. I love your tatting and knitting. New granny squares are always fun too!

@MaireColclough Год назад

Aw, thanks...I look forward to finding new ways to film old crafts! 😁

Everything you show on your channel fits neatly into an Venn diagram of interesting /insightful / clever / suitably goofy / delightfully geek / generously honest. Not the easiest recipe to pull of but you do it well :) Enthusiastically waiting for all the oncoming escapades 😊

@MaireColclough Год назад

That's quite the Venn diagram! Thank you! 😃

It seems like the only thing we like more than a mystery pattern is a mystery pattern that ends in disaster. Hopefully that takes some pressure off - an amusing train wreck is just as satisfying as a lovely finished object.

As a craft hey! squirrel! kind of person, anything you do is fine by me. Even knitting, which even my grandmother's patience couldn't teach me😊. Tatting videos make me nostalgic. Mom learned how back in the 80s, with the help of a kindly old lady she knew. Sigh. I miss the swearing.

@MaireColclough Год назад

🤣 The swearing is real 😁

@thistleanddoug5957 Год назад

I always enjoy your videos…regardless of the topic. If you don’t follow Vintage Sewing Machine Garage on RU-vid he is worth a look. After watching him I tackled my first antique singer hand crank….brought her from the brink of the scrap pile to a fine shiny machine. I just finished overhauling a 1980 Juki industrial walking foot…a game changer for sewing bags. I hope to see more content from you soon!! Take Care!

@stevezytveld6585 Год назад

Welcome back. I understand completely how phone work will burn a body out. Especially if there are quotas. And I also understand looking at a YT channel as an alternate 'return to work' plan. I've been in the early stages of plotting such a thing myself. If you ever want to talk/plot-out strategy... The crafting sounds like a good place to start from. You're machine is unbelievable. Just gorgeous; well done Granny and any other family involved in the investment. Have fun creating with her. The presser feet is a rabbit hole to happily fall down (they usefully de-math allot of the sewing process). I've found that using sewing machine oil on screws is a useful way to clean them up for easier operation. - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi

@MaireColclough Год назад

This machine was entirely my Mother-in-Law, as far as I know. To say I'm thankful is an understatement 😃 I will take the machine oil tip and run with it! I need to do a full cleanup as the case is dusty-dirty and someone was smoking around it, so it needs a good clean & polish (I hear machine oil is also good for the latter). Wish me luck!

@victoriafrances2432 Год назад

I have twice owned a singer treadle machine, one of them a parlor model, and had to give each of them up for two expensive cross country moves (the piano and the 1929 gas cook stove went, too) and I am still missing them! I'm so happy for you that you have yours now!

@MaireColclough Год назад

I'm crying on the inside for your Singers and piano. The Husbeast probably felt a ripple in the force at the mention of your stove. I hope you find more treasures that spark joy and maybe not take their place, but bring you contentment 😃

@kaytiej8311 Год назад

Tatting? Say what?! Yays please, very much! I've tried to teach myself several times but never get past the very basics. And granny square variations? Yes! And...? Yes! All of it. It's so good to have you back. Looking foward to everything you care to do, show, demonstrate, intro, try or are interested in.

@MaireColclough Год назад

Tatting is all practice. And watching how the hands move. It took me a few attempts to get it right and now it's...um...it's an addiction. I mean, if you REALLY want to be sitting on Amazon buying thread at 3am because someone just restocked the Golo and Handy Hands...I think I can help you out. 😅

Dear Maire, I'm not sure how I missed this video, as I have rewatched many of yours multiple times. Sorry to hear about your work/life-induced anxiety, but I think RU-vid is a great place for self-employment, so I hope it works out for you. I enjoy all the different crafts you show, & best of all is your dry wit! I'll be watching whatever you fancy to show. Best wishes from Czechia.

@SimpleDesertRose Год назад

Its been a while. Ironically i was just thinking about you the ither day. I was thinking that I hadn't had a good dose if snark in a while, but lots if attitude from the teenagers. I'm always down for more content. Crafting, sewing, or otherwise. I would love to see some basic how to videos, it might be helpful in picking up a few things. Right now i'm just trying to keep cool. Imagine no AC in the middle of the blistering Arizona summer and that is where i am at. Its too hot to do anything right now. I did however funally bite the bullet and pull apart my shawl i was working on to the point where i had somehow gotten two extra doubles on each end and fix it and even had a little thread left over before i started the next section in the next color. I've mostly been wirking in it in the evenings when the temoeratures drop below 100. Its supposed to be 114 in a couple days. Its days like that that i wish i had a nice cool finished basement to hang out in. Oh well at least we have the pool and a swamp cooler to help keep cool and make it tolerable to sleep at night. Anyhoo looking to seeing more of you more often. 😊

@MaireColclough Год назад

Canada is pretty warm right now as well...and no AC here either. We'll both have to just keep hydrated 😅

Though I have told myself no more new crafts that require stuff. You might notice the loop hole… if I have most of the stuff and a base knowledge it’s not really new! Or that’s what I tell myself as I look for rings so I can try making buttons. So yeah have fun!!

@MaireColclough Год назад

But at least you're MAKING the buttons, rather than BUYING buttons... 😉

According to the serial number, the machine was made somewhere between 1910 and 1920. She's definitely a beauty! And I definitely recommend tatting. It's really easy to tuck into a handbag in case you get bored in line at the shop or need something to do with your hands when visiting friends 😉
