Favorite Antique Singer--Excluding the FW?
 
Just curious what is your favorite not counting the FW. I have two FW's and a 15-91. I want to add to my collection. Anxious to see what models others love.

For the simplicity and ease of use as well as the great stitches I'm partial to the Singer 66 series.
The 99s come in second.

I am partial to my 201's. I have two of them and use them nearly every day. My 15-91s, of which I have 3, come in as second favorites. My featherweight, although I really like it, I simply don't use it very much, but I would never part with it because it is just so, so cute!!!!!

I might add that the 66 / 99 series is my favorite straight stitch machine. For the ZZ machines I really am partial to the 401 / 500 machines, but so far no real favorite.

I would have to say the 15-91's are my favorite.

My favorite Singer? Without a "tail"...my 115 treadle. With a tail, hard to say...just got the 206K, so am partial to it right now...but love the others too! Maybe the 500A Rocketeer?

My favorite is the singer 66-1. This is my go to treadle. Actually I like all 30 of them that I have. Not fond of the FW thou

I love my 301A's. I have two of them and they sew wonderfully.

Candace 06-16-2013 07:59 AM

301's for sure. I still have 4 of them.

Will never part with my 401A, great machine.
