Andy, Aunt Bea, Barney, Floyd, Howard, Goober, Gomer, Sam, Earnest T Bass, Helen, Thelma Lou, Clara and, of course, Opie were all single. The only married person was Otis, and he stayed drunk."Julia Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15633121570331187589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-28003028210340996842018-02-05T11:03:21.170-05:002018-02-05T11:03:21.170-05:00Loved Mayberry and Aunt Bea!

So 20 to 30 years from now, some quilter will present one of your machines to her group. Bonnie Hunter wound a bobbin on this machine. The whole group will come and stroke the decals on the base and wish that they too had met you.Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474769957948425793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-58893811197420012202018-02-05T01:12:40.405-05:002018-02-05T01:12:40.405-05:00What a cool experience, Bonnie!

As I was reading the article and read “on the verge of celebrating 30th anniversary of the show”, I thought it has been much longer than that....and realized the articles were written about 27 years ago! So we are getting close to the 60 year anniversary now! I did think it was sad that at age 86 when she died, she had no known living relatives. She certainly left a wonderful legacy with her work and we are all the better for it.....especially when you have the pleasure of sewing on her featherweight!Sally Langston Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08947024909324503884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-12579089409323845092018-02-04T12:05:01.250-05:002018-02-04T12:05:01.250-05:00What a Treasured memory!!

Aunt Bea reminds me so much of my late mother both is smile and some of her personality traits. I will have to rename my Featherweight with a middle name of Bea to honor this link!
