I'll start with my 2 Singer 127s and maybe add my electric machines in a later post.

1891 Rosebud, the most beautiful treadle I've ever seen. Complete with puzzle box.

And Cleo from 1910. I've been piecing blocks on this one:

Top one is not a 127. In fact it's not a 27 either (technically). It's a VS2.

Middle one isn't either: It's a 27.

Bottom one: oooohhhh, kitties!

Hmmm, I stand corrected then. I thought the 127s were VS2s. I am still learning Singer models.

Welcome aboard Notsothoroeu! Beautiful machines and Kitties. My 1908 model 27 is in a stand just like the one the cats are perched on.

That's a very pretty VS2 - I've been watching for one to add to my collection.

I also have a couple of machines that spend most of their time serving as cat beds too - though usually only one cat at a time, since the three I have now don't like to cuddle with each other (the outside cats sure do!)

I'm anxious to get home today - I have a box with a VS1 in it waiting for me.

:shock: VS1..... Too Cool!

It's sort of like Grandma, Mom and daughter. ;)
VS2 - Grandma, 27 - Mom, 127 - daughter. All with little changes along the way.

Oh,.. and VS1,.. great grandma ;)

Steve, I would have loved it if you would have cleaned this Elgin. It was a complete disaster when I got it and a real challenge. Here is the results of my latest project, The Elgin.

No I did not. Those are all the original decals.
