I had had no intention of buying but hung around to see what it would go for.
no one was bidding so I threw out $25.00 and got it plus all the goodies you see
and more! The chair seat lifts up and it was full with a couple new rivet makers,
beads and stuff. You can see I barely got it in the door before trying it out.
sews like a charm!

Patience paid off! You have a great machine especially for piecing. If you have any questions about it, post them on the Vintage and Antique forum here.

Very nice little set-up. Singer 15-91 in a custom cabinet and a beautiful chair, not to mention all the loot and booty that came with it!

Recently I found a Singer 301 in a cabinet with bench and tons of feet and attachments and gadgets. I got it for $50. It happens. They are out there.

LilaKay 01-03-2016 02:37 AM

Oh My...that is the machine I learned to sew on. If I had room in my sewing area for another machine, I would look for one just like this!

vicki reno 01-03-2016 04:36 AM

That is as good as winning the lottery! Good for you!

quilterpurpledog 01-03-2016 04:58 AM

That is being in the right place at the right time. I hope you will truly enjoy your treasures. That machine looks like it is in perfect shape. WOW.

So happy for you! The Singer 15-91 is my all time favorite machine! Enjoy!

Snooze2978 01-03-2016 05:24 AM

Nice Haul. Those scissors in their original cases looked familiar. Have mine in their original cases too. I rarely ever use them since the rotary cutters came out with various blades like the pinking blade.

Karamarie 01-03-2016 05:28 AM

Wow - you hit the mother load! Enjoy.

twinkie 01-03-2016 06:11 AM
