Whilst trawling through my Textile Museums favourites, I found this picture of a lady using a sewing machine. It is a metal sculpture. I’ve no idea why I bookmarked it under Textile Museums but I’m glad I found it again!
Anyone know where this is?

Liz,
I may be mistaken but I believe that sculpture lives at the Mill in Lowell, Massachusetts.
I don’t have time to check right now . Mainly wanted to thank you for the image.
I have seen it somewhere!!!

If not Lowell, maybe the garment district in Manhattan –
Liz I have this photo saved and if I remember it was posted by someone on the QA list a couple of years ago, as I remember it they said they saw the sculpture ? (sorry I can’t remember which country but I do remember it was central america) which ties in with you web link, I might have the e mail saved some where if I come across it I will forward it to you, I love the sculpture, for it’s self and the recycling, best thoughts Frances,
I just love that sculpture Liz. i hope you find out where it’s from.
What a neat sculpter.
it has to be on the grounds of a textile museum! i wonder who the artist is?
Thanks, everyone! I haven’t been able to link it up to a definite site yet but I’ll keep you posted if I find out! I think Quiltart is where I originally saw a post about it too, Frances! But unfortunately I just bookmarked it and didn’t make a note of its location or the sculptor….
Love the sculpture, hope you find where it is.
Heres another sewing machine sculpture for your collection, located within NYC fashion district.
