My Christmas Wish: A New Sashiko Sewing Machine!


My Christmas Wish, 67 X 84 inch red and white hand quilted Christmas quilt by O.V. Brantley, 2022. On sale. $1875.00

My Christmas wish came true. I found a new Babylock Shashiko sewing machine under my Christmas tree! Daughter India teamed up with my Special to make my Christmas wish come true. I have been a very good girl. 😍


Christmas toys!

As you know, I love to personally hand quilt, and I love quilts that are quilted by hand more than those quilted by machine. However, hand quilting is almost a lost art, and it takes a very long time to hand quilt a quilt.


The Sashiko machine, which is the only stand alone machine on the market that creates stitches that look like hand quilting, may be a partial solution for me. It is a bit different from other machines primarily because it only utilizes the bobbin thread. There is no top thread. Imagine that! I am up to the challenge of learning this new machine. Wish me luck and look forward to many new quilts!


My new Sashiko!!
