Sure, rub it in, Kathi!!! Just because you have both!

WOW!! Lucky, lucky!!!

Yes. She is

Wow! She's in beautiful condition too!

Nice Hubby!! She's adorable

I just recently got one in excellent shape also. Priscilla, Prissy for short.

If you think she's beautiful to look at, wait until you sew on it!!! :) :) :)

Congratulations!!!

According to the Singer website, the serial number indicates she was made in 1951. I emailed Singer to get the exact date, but haven't heard back yet. There are several bobbins, wooden spools of thread and she sounds so smooth when I press the pedal foot. I'm going to do a Grandma's fan using 1930's repro fabric once I get her looked at and serviced. I'm so excited, I could hardly stand myself. Thanks everyone for looking and the wonderful comments..

Isn't it just great! I too got one, but for Mother's Day! she is so sweet .. named her Mitzi :)

He deserves a nice dinner for that surprise :mrgreen:

Both are keepers :thumbup:

He is a keeper for sure so does he get a nice dinner for that plus a Hug (:)

Kathi, Looks just like mine, including the piece of masking tape for a guide!! Mine was my first sewing machine, of my own, got it in 1959.

Oooo what a beauty :D:D:D

do you rent your husband out? He's a keeper <wink>

I had two and gave one to my daughter. I love using it on quilts. It sews so smooth.

He is a keeper. Great job.

You taught him well, good for both of you.

Darn tootin'!

I'm a tinge green with envy - lucky you, obviously you deserve it. Enjoy.

What a thoughtful husband. You will love sewing on it. It just purrs.

Wow I want one like that...both the machine and the husband! You are one lucky lady!
Kind Regards,
MaryAnna

Wow and double WOW!!!! Will you please have your wonderful hubby call my hubby? He could sure use a hint or two about what would make me very happy. So happy you have this beautiful machine.

On the Singer website if you go to the second page it will tell you the specific date and location that your machine was made at. Congrats I just got my first Featherweight about 6 weeks ago and I love it. They are sooooo cool.

BEAUTIFUL!!, you are going to love it! I just got one from my hubby, ()1950too! and I can"t stay away from it!

Awesome!

He's a keeper and the machine is so neat!! Lucky Lady!!!

well when then????? :lol:

I went to the website and mine was made on October 31, 1951 and according to the information only 50,000 were made.
I can't wait to start sewing with her, but I might have to give her a good wipe down. You know ladies and gents, I will be asking a lot of questions about my new baby and I know everyone who has one these little ladies will be able to help me. I really love this board and all of the great advice and tips everyone has. Of course, the quilts and everything else sewing is just as great!!! You folks are truly an inspiration to me and my new found love of quilting and sewing!!! Thanks so much!!!
