I love old things! And I love your old Singer! If I had more room I would collect more of the old sewing machines!
What a bargain! Free! So great that it didn't need much repair. :D :D |

Have any idea what year that machine is? Pretty cool that you have it. Your star quilt is beautiful, too! What will you do with it -- keep it or give it away?
|
I really like that pattern, beautiful job!!! :D :D :D You got a real good deal on that machine :D :D :D
|
Hey I have that machine
My MIL gave it to me. Do you have all of the cogs too? It is a good machine. I didn't have much trouble with mine. I retired it when I bought the Janome. |
Nicea quilts Don. You amaze me because you get so much done.
|
Love your old sewing machine!!
And your quilt is beautiful!! |
Wonderful quilt Don & great machine! Looks a lot like my old Singer :D
|
Love the quilt!
Love the machine!!! Is that a 401..........my mom has a 401 and my daughter got one from a man in Florida. He repairs old machines like that and has lots of old parts. I will look for his e-mail address and send it to you. |
Your quilts are always so cool!
I love the machine. I have an old Brother that I just had repaired. The case was no good, but the machine is in excellent shape. So that is what I am going to be doing all my sewing on from now on. Those old machines were made so much better than the cheapie ones nowadays. |
Very nice Don!!

That is a great quilt.
Funny you should post that sewing machine. Last week I went to get Grandmas sewing machines (she passed away on Easter) and today I finished cleaning all the grime and years of tabacco smoke off it. It looks identical to yours. I've not yet tried it. But, am planning to soon! |
Love the star quilt, glad to see the little orphan found a new home....lol

Seriously, mamabird, after you hand turn the wheel a few times, you should probably have your 'new' machine professionally tuned up! Probably hasn't seen the inside of a sewing machine workshop in YEARS! |
Don, what year is your singer? My mom had one like that and now my sister has it.
|
Beautiful quilt!!! I keep looking at it trying to figure out where one star ends and the other begins.
And I love the sewchine. Look at that huge throat! |
This looks identical to my machine. Mine is the singer 403a. It was manufactured in 1951.
