...die afgelope blomseisoen (Sept 2019) ry ek deur Vanhrynsdorp en besoek die plaaslike vetplantkwekery. Dit huisves ook heelwat antieke gebruiks - artikels ondermeer `n hele paar ou naaimasjiene.

The First Functional Machine That Caused a Riot
The first functional sewing machine was invented by the French tailor, Barthelemy Thimonnier, in 1830. Thimonnier's machine used only one thread and a hooked needle that made the same chain stitch used with embroidery. The inventor was almost killed by an enraged group of French tailors who burnt down his garment factory because they feared unemployment as a result of his sewing machine invention.
