Wow Tuesy they are sisters aren't they! I am so used to my old singer I would have to get used to anything else but I wanted a backup for when I have trouble with mine.
Here's my everyday machine. This is my 1950's repro of a 1850's Singer. I traced the model to get this info. I love my sewing machine. It is simple with no confusing gadgets. It is easy to thread and easy to load the bobbin. The thing that throws me on other machines is figuring out how to load the bobbins. So frustrating! And I rarely have a manual to follow.
I don't do any complicated sewing so this works for me just fine. It has a knee pedal which I like. I have always hated the foot pedals because you have to keep finding them. I do get frustrated with the knee pedal tho at times. It is a rod that pushes through a metal guide and it comes out of the guide at times. Haven't figured out how to stop it doing that.
Mine is also in its own cabinet and when I have gone to use another machine the differance in height bothers me.
So how many machines do you (anyone) have? Share your pics here of your machines if you like. Would love to see what everyone has!
