Fantastic places we’ve gone.
I recently posted on Facebook Atlas Obscura’s story on the Vintage Sewing Center & Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It’s a fun look at one of the few sewing museums in the country. A fan had made a comment that the owner of the museum WK Binger had been shot in the face. I at first didn’t believe it and privately messaged the museum to find … Continue reading Vintage Sewing Center & Museum, Tulsa OK
My knowledge of Indiana begins and stops at Michael Jackson, Indy 500 and Hoosiers (whatever those are). But, somewhere I heard about The French Seam, maybe on social media or in Threads magazine. And, with a name like that, it’s hard to forget. Frontier Airlines offers low fares every now and then. I told myself that next time a cheap fare came along I would book a flight out to Indianapolis and visit The French Seam. And, so it came to be.

I love the Airstream, but it really is a money pit and we’ve often thought about selling it. But, then when we take it out, we vow to hold on to it and keep working on it. And, it needs work. EVERY year something goes wrong. Like this trip the toilet didn’t work and we didn’t have hot water. We usually stay at RV parks surrounded by very upscale RV’s. As in $300,000 kind of upscale. And, there amid all the glitz and glamour sits our very old Silver Twinkie. But, I love it.
I’ve always wanted to sew in the Airstream and this year I did. Here are a few pointers for sewing on the road. I am no expert but if you decide to sew on the go these might be helpful. Continue reading “Sewing On The Road (In A 1962 #Airstream)”
