I went to see an old Singer machine (sorry, don't know the model#) that I saw onCraigslist, and ended up buying not only that one, but also a Bernina Bernette Deco 600, with some cards and a bunch of embroidery thread - got them for a song! Now I just have to learn how to use them.....

Here's the old Singer I went to get originally.

Enjoy your new machine, I really like Isacord embroidery thread to use, too.

Wow, the Singer looks EXACTLY like the one my mom had. My grandfather bought it for her in 1963. He paid approx $300.00 for it. Did it come with a cabiniet? It was a light blonde color. I think I have attachments for it. I'll check for a model number.

I've never used an embroidery machine, but have a need for one and just can't pass up a deal! I bought the Singer for my quilt frame - it has a deeper throat than the machine I sew with, and swapping the one machine back and forth is a real pain. I appreciate any information you kind ladies and gentlemen could provide!

Great score! I never thought I wanted an embroidery machine but would be fun for labels. Will keep my eyes open for a used bargain.
