Nice Red-Eye Singer sewing machine! Enjoy!

Looks like you had a great time. That's a beautiful Singer -- I think it's called a Red Eye? Not sure...be sure you show it to Lostn51 - Billy. He loves those old machines.

Wow, what a great haul. Now to plan what to make, more fun. I so need to shop with someone like you. I walk around our LQS for hours before I buy one thing. Want to buy just the right thing. I need someone to get me on the right path.

mommamac 10-26-2010 03:43 PM
