Annie Pratt bought her
Singer in the 1920s. When the Germans bombed her hometown of Plymouth, England,
during World War II, rather than run for shelter, Annie ran home to save her
beloved sewing machine. She escaped with her machine in tow and sustained only
a few burns on her hands.
The sewing machine sews what the scissors have cut asunder, plus whatever else comes in its path.
A tranquil woman can go on sewing longer than an angry man can go on fuming. George Bernard Shaw
Take your needle, my child, and work at your pattern; it will come out a rose by and by. Life is like that - one stitch at a time taken patiently and the pattern will come out all right like the embroidery.- Oliver Wendell Holmes
