Welcome from SC Texas. I lived over there during the middle sixty's but don't remember the name of the machines but they were blue, green and gold and were knockoffs of Singer models.

Hello and welcome from N Texas

Thanks for the welcomes! I think I would like a pretty machine, i.e., blue, pink, or turquoise, or another nice color. I have now a Pfaff 1475 CD as original owner and a Featherweight. Just would like something "pretty" to sew with. I will look around for the suggested Singers for heavy duty sewing and see if I can find one. Maybe just get it painted! Well, maybe when I win the lottery. Lol!

Any other suggestions welcome! Haven't seen too many pink machines around. Just a Brother which was in poor condition. Kinda like the Blue Morse Photomatic's models. But not too sure if they sew well and can be used for FMQ.

I was browsing the Vintage Japenese postings and seeing what others have. I sure wished I would of been paying more attention to sewing machines in the late 60's and 70's! I would of had a nice pretty one already! Oh well, hindsight......... 😀

:) welcome from se TX -- I have a 1978 Kenmore with a high shank and the left needle position and using the narrow straight stitch foot (which gives a 1/4 inch seam guide), I piece on this machine!!

I am also new to the board. I have sewn pretty much all my life ( since age 8) and have gotten into quilting since retirement. I joined a very relaxed sewing club where we get together and work on whatever we want, whenever we want. It has become my favorite social activity.

I saw some pretty color machine on QVC once. Maybe you could check out their website.

Welcome from Oklahoma. Glad to have you here.
