I remember that machine! I can't remember the name of the store - wasn't a quilter, sewed clothes back then. I told my daughter today that when I started sewing I made my clothes to save money, then it changed to sewing so I could have what I wanted.

WOW...I remember those too!! Oh no I've turned old!! How did it happen??? Good question!
|
My first sewing purchases were measured with those "machines". I think their use was discontinued with the explosion of knits/double knits that couldn't be measured through them because of the stretch qualities.

I remember!!!!

My mother used one of these machines when she measured fabrics at the local department store. It was fun to watch her using the machine.

Interesting---the one on ebay is now at $45 with NO bids.
