As a former Singer sewing instructor and custodian of my grandmother's 100 year old Singer treadmill, I appreciate all the care and attention you took to restoring Bertha ❤ 🇺🇸
Oskar Robin is getting so big! I saw him looking at the cattle and imagined him yelling MOOOO at them. He looks so much like you, Jenny. It was so sweet to see Rupert feeding wild strawberries to Oskar. My great aunt Bertha taught me to sew on her mother's treadle singer. It gives my heart a lovely hug to hear this machine named for my very favorite relative. My Bertha taught me so much and was such a support while I was growing up. She lived well into her 90s, so I had her for a long time. May her spirit look upon your Bertha and assist as needed, as my aunt always did. I am a night owl and was surprised to see The Moons post at my 3 am, but then I realized it's your 8 or 9 am. I really need to move to Europe. Blessed be, Magical Moons!
Jennie is so talented, I was surprised to see her using this "felting" technique. Nick's hardware added structure to this recreation. Well done to both of you.♥
Rupert feeding his baby brother, Oskar Robin, wild strawberries is so very touching!! Nick, your ingenuity knows no bounds!! The look of satisfaction on your face, Jennie, is angelic!! Big Bertha, love the name, Jennie!! 😂 Nick, your mechanical abilities know no bounds!! The fact that this sewing machine has survived well over a century (128 years) is a testament to how well-made devices were in the past. Built-in obsolescence was not the order of the day, as greed and profit have now become synonymous with contemporary manufacturing. Toby has certainly grown since the earlier episodes!! He has always been so comfortable with the equines, and they with him. Charlotte and Grace look so happy and gleamingly beautiful!! Now everyone can see how The Moon Family has brought them back.

Thank you for sharing your day with us, dear Moons. The fastening of the shutters before the storm gave me such a real sense of buttoned up protection and security that the shutters provide. Seeing the tender care you take of the Legends, your other animal friends, your family and each other inspires us to be more observant of the needs around us and mindful of the help and good we can bring to life situations in our daily rounds. Rupert and Oskar had the wild strawberries scoped out along the lane and their delight in picking, sharing and enjoying the fresh berries was a joy. The artful arrangement of projects in the antique repair workshop always draws me in with curiosity and wonder. Love the way that you each shared the intricacies of your complementary work in restoring these precious treasures. The patience and precision required in each aspect of the repairs is mind-boggling and it is fascinating to hear you explain how important a role restraint plays in the sensitive process of refurbishing these priceless heirlooms. Rejoicing that Bertha has responded so positively to the thorough disassembly and cleaning and oiling you gave her, Nick! What a fine cooperative team you and Jenny are! Each of your sons is learning practical work and people skills alongside their loving parents, as well. In terms of the work table for Bertha... I saw a large creative workspace made from a repurposed oversized flat surfaced solid wood door. You may need your "table" supports to be different useful items, dimensions or spacings, but this maker used two 2-drawer file cabinets as the supports for their work surface. Hugs and blessings
Seeing the repair work on the elephant was very magical. I am excited to see Bertha come to life with her own table. Thinking of the table, there are mechanics sold to lower the machine, and you can make a panel to cover the hole with a panel. The mechanism is sold to put in a kitchen for a large mixer when not in use. Having a full table tops is prime real-estate. Thank you for bringing Majic to my home.
Wonderful job, you guys, everything coming together like magic. Ru is a super big brother for sharing the wild strawberries with Oskar. Happy days and wonderful memories xxxx
This is an amazing life your children are living. I remember as a child picking wild strawberries. Watching Rupert share with Oskar is just priceless. Well done with the elephant and the sewing machine!
Jenny is so talented doing just about everything on the farm. And Nick, what an extraordinary mind to be able to fix just about anything. Loved watching the elephant and the Singer come back to life. 😀
How talented you two are A wonderful restoration I’m expecting Michael to be totally amazed at how you have brought this heirloom back to its original glory
Oh my goodness, seeing Rupert walking with Oskar was so sweet. Has Rupert had a growing spurt? He's looking taller, and cuter than ever. Oskar was sure enjoying those strawberries. Good job on the elephant Jenny. It's amazing his much you had to repair & how beautiful it looks now. I loved seeing you sitting Nick's lap. You're such a beautiful couple. Good job to Nick for his handy work in bringing the elephant mobile again, and Bertha up and running. Such a productive video. ❤
The youngest boys walking together picking wild strawberries...so cute! Little Oskar is such a little man and big brother is a real sweetheart. Wow Jennie, you are a miracle worker and Nick the same. A pleasure to watch you every time!
Oskar-Robin is growing so fast! And Ru has a new haircut. He has the thickest, nicest hair. Besides being a JOYFUL & loving young man. What are the turkeys up to? Love to all the Magical Moons.
Nick, is there nothing you can’t do? My goodness! Your little mini-me’s were so cute picking wild berries & filling their tummies! Mommy Moon has such a passion for fixing old stuffed toys! She is a master! Warms my heart, your little family!❤
What a perfect start to the day with the Moons, breakfast in the sunshine in the garden, first time this year and seeing Teddy waiting to be pampered. We will soon be reunited 😅❤️xx
The elephant looks super , you’re quite right to be pleased with him . Nicks on the job with Bertha so we know that’ll turn out well . The children & horses are all thriving .. such a nice visit today , see yo7 again soon !
All is well in the house of Moons. The pain staking care that is used for the repairs is also transferred over to the family 2 & 4 legged. Your children are very respectful and sweet. The Legends are jumping for the joy of it, Mother Nature washed the air and grass for them too. Have a wonderful day
I can't wait to see the fur restoration on the elephant I do hope you will film it. Now that Toby is home you have a little extra time in the Teddy Bear Rescue, Toy Hospital, Antique Repair Shop. Or as I like the call it - The Magical Repair Room! Amazing talent and skill in Mummy Moon's hands!
Nothing better than a space filled to the brim with well loved treasures and all the tools of the trade right at your fingertips. Such a vintage, cozy feel to the repair shop and the “yankee frugality” is wonderful. Love, love, love your vlogs.
I love the ❤Moon family, this is feel good channel. Loving the elephant excellent job. Little Rupert and Oscar Robin are adorable 🥰 I think little Oscar is going to be as cheeky and gorgeous as his older brother Rupert. I will donate some money for the horses 🐎
You live in such a magical rural setting. I was also fortunate to have grown up in a rural setting (starting at the age of 5). We did not have the water feature that the Moons have, but we had 20 acres to call our own. During the summer, Mom would have to call us to come inside at night because we would be playing until dark. My 5 brothers and I had chores to do, along with other responsibilities, but it still left plenty of time to be kids. In the winter, we had a hill for sledding and almost every Sunday, we made homemade ice cream. We used a hand cranked wooden device. With Dad’s help, we used snow and rock salt around the inner metal vessel that held the cream mixture. My Mom would make homemade hot cocoa to help warm us up when we finally came inside the house. Such wonderful memories of that place we called home.
Excellent team work Jenny n Nick. Congratulations on all your hard work with the horses. l admire your commitment looking after the horses health. Nick the Singer machinery is looking fantastic. The elephant is such a credit to your skills Jen. Love love watching your 'magic'. Kath in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia!!! ❤
I see an important theme with the Magical Moons- there is value in things and animals as we age. Just because you are old, does not mean you are disposable. Thank you Moons.
I can just hear Oskar mooing to the cows in the field while holding onto that fence panel. 🐄🐄🐄 Rupert was so excited for the wild strawberries to ripen. How sweet of him to share so many with Oskar. 🍓🍓 Great job in the repair shop Jennie and Nick. Nice to get a glimpse of Toby too. Another magical video, as always. ❤
I love seeing the boys together. Ru is such a generous big brother. He must have good examples. So little rust on the big Bertha, it's amazing. Thank you for a lovely video. ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉😊
Thanks for sharing on the sewing machine. I have a 75yr old Miniature singer that I learned to sew on when I was 3. It’s seized up but you have given me the spark to get her moving again !
Watch with mother, tales of the riverbank were amongst some of the magical programs for our family when a child. Watching your vlogs gives me that same magical feeling of wonderment. Thanx
Your post reminiscing about the programs that fueled your imagination as a child, not only piqued my curiosity about Tales of the Riverbank, but jogged my own childhood memory of being enraptured by the episodic text and enchanting illustrations of our well-worn and dearly loved copy of Wind in the Willows. So grateful for the gentle nudge your share provided, robsondog01!
Rupert and Oskar Robin are the cutest boys. Oskar s personality is showing more all the time. Delightful little boy with loving and caring g big brothers. Old Bertha looks amazing Nick and Jenny that range elephant T’s adorable, Michael will be very excited and you’ve done a fabulous job. I rennet how it looked when you were first staring to make him all better. Amazing talent my friend. Such love for all you touch. ❤❤❤
Watching the sympathetic repairs on both the elephant and “Bertha” instills such a peaceful feeling. Nothing frantic here, just steady intent that is also reflected in the berry picking and sharing of the bounty.❤❤
❤❤❤😊Such a loving video of care and restoration of vintage items..much talent beautiful Moons. The lovely horses and the boys getting so big and sharing strawberries. Lord bless you..family and animals. I'm surprised the turkeys were not supervising the boys.😊
Awesome.! Got to love those old Singers.. I've restored about a dozen of them now. Going to pick up another one this weekend.. They really are easy to work on, and tear down piece by piece to really clean/restore, hand wheel needle bar, presser bar spring, etc. etc.. It's kind of an addiction, I love working on them. I have 14 sewing machines now, 12 antique Singers of various models. Nice to see the restoration of the woolly mammoth/elephant.. awesome job.! Restoring things is just so rewarding.
Jenny and Nick… one day will you tell us your story of your journey from living and working in the UK to discovering France and deciding to leave your jobs and England and how you went about looking for a property and moving?
Although I know I’ve watched each episode (I think, lol), I’ve not seen the adorable turkey pair lately. Love watching them stroll with family-act like loyal family dogs. Nothing has happened to them, right? I hope!
Table for Bertha. I have used a hollow care door with legs for sewing table. Small bookcases instead of legs is excellent for added storage of threads, bobbins etc. excellent space for projects and sturdy enough for what ever the project
It is absolutely delightful to see the elephant repair, I'd love to see the beautiful creature when it first came to you for fixing. I think I need some of the treatment which Nick is giving to the sewing machine because I am so stiffened up with arthritis and I have Fibromyalgia. Funnily enough my adult kids call me 'Big Bertha' since putting a fair bit of weight on 🥴😂
11:30 pm in Las Vegas Nevada. Every time I see your home I am just amazed at the absolute beauty It. To be able to walk down driveway& Pick strawberries,what a blessing. Iam in love with Michael's Elephant. Have a Magical Day ❤
Fantastic episode! I love seeing new life breathed into cast offs. Michael is going to pleasantly surprised and very happy when he gets his elephant back. Bertha will be purring along very soon. Thanks Jenny and Nick. 🙏❤️
The machine also needs a wooden handle on the wheel. Have you got a local MIUS, you might find a suitable table there or in a charity shop. The elephant is looking great.
So lovely to see the two youngest lads picking raspberries! The Steiff elephant is charming and getting a new life! Micheal will be most pleased! Old Bertha will sew again soon! Great vlog! Cheers!
The elephant is beautiful, Jenny! Michael will be thrilled with him! Nick, once again you put your magic to the vintage machine! It sure will come in handy on all the horses blanket etc. repair! Rupert and Oscar-Robin are so cute together! Such a loving family! Love from Pennsylvania 💕🌷🐻
