  • INSTRUCTIONS for USING the GREIST ZIGZAG / AUTOMATIC BUTTONHOLE ATTACHMENT Model #;S 6, 7, 8, 9 &10
    INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE GREIST ZIGZAG / AUTOMATIC BUTTONHOLE ATTACHMENT Model #;s 6, 7, 8, 9 &10 The possession of a Buttonhole Attachment is one luxury which is also an economy and sewing becomes a fascination anticipating the simplicity with which buttonholes can now be worked. You merely stitch and yet produce the very nicest buttonholes on a great variety of fabrics. There is no skill required. Your attachment furnishes the magic fingers which produce buttonholes in a fraction of the time it takes to work them by hand. They are more durable and stitches are more evenly spaced than those made by hand. SET OF TEMPLATES The Templates, which guide the stitches evenly around the entire buttonhole are furnished with the Buttonhole Attachment in the following 13 sizes: Plain buttonholes: 8mm, 10mm, 13mm, 16mm, 21mm, 22mm, 24mm, 25mm, 27mm Eylet 8mm Keyhole/ eylet buttonholes: 16mm, 22mm, 27mm To avoid any chance of confusion, in positioning the Templates, they have been designed with a larger rounded end which fits over the Pinion Gear on the underside of the attachment . To determine the Template required to make the correct size buttonhole for a flat button, place the button over the measurement line on the back of Templates. Make a sample of each size buttonhole and use it as a guide for working buttonholes to be used with irregular buttons. RELEASING RETAINER PLATE First turn Plastic Adjusting Knob on the top of the buttonholer clockwise until the Cloth Clamp is all the way forward toward you, and the Pinion Gear is at the back of the Feed Blade.

Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2011 with funding from Boston Public Library http://www.archive.org/details/repoussworkforamOOhasl GROUP OF LEAVES. Repousse Work for Amateurs. : REPOUSSE WORK FOR AMATEURS: BEING THE ART OF ORNAMENTING THIN METAL WITH RAISED FIGURES. tfjLd*- 6 By L. L. HASLOPE. ILLUSTRATED. LONDON L. UPCOTT GILL, 170, STRAND, W.C, 1887. PRINTED BY A. BRADLEY, 170, STRAND, LONDON. 3W PREFACE. " JjJjtfN these days, when of making books there is no end," ^*^ and every description of work, whether professional or amateur, has a literature of its own, it is strange that scarcely anything should have been written on the fascinating arts of Chasing and Repousse Work. It is true that a few articles have appeared in various periodicals on the subject, but with scarcely an exception they treated only of Working on Wood, and the directions given were generally crude and imperfect. This is the more surprising when we consider how fashionable Repousse Work has become of late years, both here and in America; indeed, in the latter country, "Do you pound brass ? " is said to be a very common question. I have written the following pages in the hope that they might, in some measure, supply a want, and prove of service to my brother amateurs. It has been hinted to me that some of my chapters are rather "advanced;" in other words, that I have gone farther than amateurs are likely to follow me.

  • THE DEGRADATION of PEWTER in ANTIQUE LACE BOBBINS Home Page
    THE DEGRADATION OF PEWTER IN ANTIQUE LACE BOBBINS Home Page Parent Page THE DEGRADATION OF PEWTER IN ANTIQUE LACE BOBBINS. This article needs a couple of pics. Pewter Degradation Introduction The pewter used in bobbins is one of the prettiest decorative processes that makers used. Unfortunately during the passage of time much of the pewter by some makers has degraded and has either fallen off the bobbin or has become swollen, misshapen and even crumbly. The following is my attempt, with the help of many people on the web and especially my friend Neil Keats, to explain this phenomenon. Pewter. Pewter is an alloy (i.e. a mixture) of tin and lead. The better the quality of pewter the higher the percentage of tin is in the alloy. Tin exists in three forms, depending on the temperature. This is called polymorphism (poly-many, morphism-shapes). At temperatures between 13 and 160 degrees C, it is called White tin, and the atoms (think of them as little balls in this description) are packed closely together to form the metal. Hence, it is a dense metal, i.e. it is hard. file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/My%20Docu...s/Pewter%20degredation/Pewter%20degredation.htm (1 of 4) [6/9/2003 8:15:25 PM] THE DEGRADATION OF PEWTER IN ANTIQUE LACE BOBBINS Below 13 degrees C the atoms rearrange to become more loosely packed (actually in the same configuration as diamond). This shows first as wart-like structures on the surface, and eventually leads to the tin crumbling into a powder. This is called "tin pest", and is what happened to the buttons on Napoleon's soldiers coats.

  • April 2019 S a N D I E G O Volume 39, Number 8
    SUNSHINE QUILTERS OF April 2019 S A N D I E G O Volume 39, Number 8 Needle & Thimble News President’s Message I am sure that we all went home filled with quilting inspiration after the March meeting. We saw so many quilts that were quilted by our dear Judi Sample; blocks that were made at the Lyn Mann workshop; coiled rope baskets that were made after our last sew in; show and tell quilts made by members; and beautiful quilts made by our speaker, Wendy Knight. We had several visitors at our last meeting. And a great time was had by all who attended. We are in the home stretch of our guild year now. Many thanks to Susan Cox and Connie Smith who vol- unteered to serve as the nominating committee this year. We will need to fill the full slate of officers this year. The nominating committee will be looking for volunteers to fill the positions that keep our guild run- ning smoothly. Filling a position is one of the easiest ways to meet other people in the guild and develop friendships. Most of the jobs require only a minimal time commitment. And it is always wonderful to get input from new people. Please consider how you can serve. Our own Sandi Delman and Kerry Marksbury will be presenting a trunk show for our April meeting. These women make such wonderful quilts. I am sure that the meeting will be a feast for your eyes. I look forward to seeing you all at the April meeting.

Jan Gadd is credited with the photography and the descriptions. He was assisted by Dr John Richardson and Michael Boorer. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… It is apparent that some information unknown to Jan has become known in the intervening years. These descriptions were the best available at the time of writing to Jan Gadd. ARLINGTON COURT IS A NATIONAL TRUST PROPERTY AT BARNSTAPLE The unmarried heiress and descendant of the original owner Rosalie Chichester died age 85 in 1949 bequeathing Arlington Court to the National Trust. She was a talented artist with a knowledge of flora and fauna, reputably strong willed, and a well-known collector of old pewter. She was also known for a strong aversion to hunting.
