I have been sewing since the age of eight, nearly 40 years ago.

| Holly Hobbie, Christmas 1978 |
My first machine was the Holly Hobbie. I saw it on it in the Toys R Us advertising and on t.v. and immediately wanted one. I remember I wanted to make doll clothes and this was the thing to do it!
I do not remember it operating with a plug. It had a bench hook that kept it stable and to make stitches, you turn the handle. I darned many socks for me and my siblings. I was so proud and it paved the way for many more machines and years of freedom of expression.
