Thanks for posting this Quilter day-by-day. I don't 'do' vintage machines but I sure enjoy reading all the posts in these threads. I am compelled to post because this is the same machine my mom bought me when I graduated from high school in 1971! That's when double knits were just coming out and the darn thing would not sew on double knits at all. I had to put tissue paper between the top fabric and the presser foot in order to coax her into sewing a seam without getting her undies (and bobbin thread) in a bunch. I held onto it (and cursed it every time I had to sew on knits) until I unloaded it in the late 70s when kids came along and my garment sewing days were over. I did, however, make a wise choice to hang onto my Singer professional buttonholer.

Thanks for the memories!
