You do have to carefully check the wires on the vintage machines to make sure that they are not frayed.

My favorite quilting vintage singers are the 401A or the singer 403. You can move the needle to the right so it is easy to set it up for the scant 1/4 seam without using a special presser foot.

Does 15-91 means anything to you?, that's what is written on the instruction booklet, I would have to check on the sewing machine but right now I'm sewing some princess dresses for my Gnieces on 5 and 7 years old and my sewing machine sit on top of the cabinet as I don't use the Singer. Do you think it's worthed to keep or should I sell it just for the pieces?
KEEP IT!!
Ok thanks, I know what you mean about the wire and it has to be change as it's not in good condition, I will eventually get it fix and keep it as a souvenir
