I'm not sure what the differences are. Some of them are electric and some are treadles. I also have a 15-91. Not sure where and when I got it but I happened to come across it when I was looking for something else :shock: :shock: :shock: I said to myself, "Well, I can cross this machine off of my wish list." :roll: :roll:

I'll bring a fruit salad and brownies!

I need to buy a key too!

Missgigglewings, you can make a key. Use a very small screw driver. It may have to be ground down a little bit. If you have a skelton key that will work also. This will do until you can find a key. Kathie

I finally came clean about the new machine lol. We were at the habitat for humanity resale store today (my husband and I) and that is where I bought the machine yesterday with my mom. Well I saw the manager and I told him that I hadn't told my husband yet about the new machine lol he said he would keep my secret lol.
Well my husband and him got to talking (about all my machines of course lol and my husband said to Jim the manager that he did think he knows all the machines I have well BIG MOUTH Jim said lol No I dont think you do lol.

Its alright hubby didnt catch it but I told him when we got home. He just shook his head and asked where I put it.


I so wanted to bring home that Free Westinghouse machine I saw there today with all the attachments but I knew that was pushing my luck lol
