    This old machine deserves all the love and respect you are giving it. It has seen more of life and hardships than I hope any of us ever have to see.

    I have a 1950 Singer machine that was given to me by a co worker, it was her mother's. It weights a ton, but I parked in the kitchen and I use it if I have lots of sewing to do (I prefer applique) it sew better than my Jenome.
