Searching for a Hespeler
1 Attachment(s)
I went to a sewing machine museum yesterday. It is in New Hamburg Ontario. Over 300 machines and the owner shared a wealth of knowledge. I should have taken pictures but I was too mesmerized!
Anyhow, he has a machine called a Hespeler. Made in Canada. He is trying to find out if anyone has one or knows of any in existence. |
Never heard of it but I'm betting someone on this board knows someone who knows someone, etc. Neat looking machine. I would Google and think that's what I'll do. I Google everything.

Where is Macybaby? She probably knows of, or has one.

From one Canuck to another .... a bit more info about the Hespeler (made in Hamilton, not Hespeler) .....

I have been trying to make arrangements to go since last year but we have had lots of family 'senior' issues that has required our attention and energy. Things are slowly being resolved so hopefully in the Spring :) |

A meet up in New Hamburg would be fun ... plus there are two LQS' there! |
