If you you are interested in knowing more about my history with the Grinch and the reason for my nickname you can read this post from last year.

Hope you are enjoying the holidays and that your heart has grown 3 sizes this year. xoxo

I LOVE the story of your name SOO much. Someday I'm going to do a post about how bloggers picked the names for their blog and this will surely be in the list.

And yes, what model of Featherweight is that?

Merry Christmas!!

He was a crafty one, that Grinch. How cool is that?! His machine looks like it is in pretty good condition. I always thought it was funny (in the movie) when the dog's tail gets caught up in the thread path and comes out the needle. Poor little guy.

Merry Christmas!

Oh Amy I went back and read your post from last year. What a sweet tribute to your Grandmother. And how wonderful that she had so much influence in your family. Happy Birthday!

When we watched this on TV a couple weeks ago I pointed out to my daughter, "look! he's sewing!" She also has an Olivia book that has a picture of the mom sewing a soccer shirt for Olivia. I love it.

I love the Grinch. How do you feel about the Jim Carrey version? Is it blasphemous to you? Because I have to admit that I find it hilarious. :) MISS YOU! Let's skype on Christmas!

you know that was exactly what i noticed when we were watching the grinch this year...that he had a really lovely sewing machine.

It's a lovely old Singer treadle machine, not a featherweight - I know because I own both! And the treadle weighs a whole lot more than the featherweight, believe you me!!!

Have a very merry Christmas!!!!
