Nancy, that was one of my lucky finds. It's a 1874 Singer Mother of Pearl. It came from North Carolina from a wonderful lady that was moving to Florida. I was thrilled that she was willing to take the time out of her busy schedule to ship it to me.
That is one beautiful machine. If it ever needs a good home I know where it can go. lol Not only is that a pretty machine but the cat is beautiful also. Kathie( who also uses the name Cat on the internet).
