Today was my lucky day...Went to 5 local tag sales looking for vintage Singers and found none but did find 5 nice fabrics 2 yds each for 15.00...Tried to get her down to 10.00 but wouldn't lower the price...And 3 books for 1.00 each

Then my Great Ebay win came today...In mint condition and works (she's electric) Betsy Ross Mini Toy sewing machine...Solid metal for the final bid win of 4.00...Can you believe it I couldn't.

WTG! I've never seen a little sewing machine that was built out of heavy weight metal. Congrats

Becky Crafts 06-26-2011 12:06 AM

Gorgeous fabrics and the sewing machine is neat too! Great finds!!

hobbykat1955 06-26-2011 04:11 AM

Yes, if you look on ebay they actually have a few made by Singer made out of the original Cast Iron in Mini...so cute. Have a few marked to possibly bid on. If I can't afford a featherweight I think the mini's are a good outlet...and cute to deplay in the sewing rm
