I know this isn't very vintage, but I wanted to share my latest 15. I think it has powerful lines, and it came today via UPS. It sews and came with a zig zagger and a complete set of attachments. Happy dance.

Thanks!! I don't know if you can see the space age looking controls very well, but I couldn't resist it.

How fun, and it even has the blue foot pedal to match! The variety of colors on these cool retro machines is really neat to see. Hmm...could be a theme for collecting, try to find one of every color. :)

I am heading in that direction!! Already have several 15s, mostly older style, many colors-pink, blue, brown, green, black, and now two-tone blue. I want yellow and red, so the hunt continues.

Yes, it sure IS addicting! I have two treadles, a featherweight, a (new to me) 301a, Kenmore Elite, and a couple of toy sewing machines...these I just acquired over the last few years because I love to sew and love having these around. Holy cow, I think I'm in trouble because now you all have given me an excuse to become an all out hoarder!!! Lol* :)
Hi Pumkinpatchquilter!

I quickly looked through your cute blog.
Your work is awesome!!

You have a very nice collection of vintage machines too.
You should start using them in your quilting -if you haven't.
You could start with your Singer 15 for your free motion quilting. You will find the harp space larger than your modern machine.

Please share your work with us in the thread title " Quilts made using vintage machines".

Looking forward to seeing more of your work! Have fun with the vintage ladies and gents!
