Bel Air 620 bobbin help
2 Attachment(s)
Hi all,
I haven't posted in years because I've been in recovery from my VSM addiction, but last week I fell off the wagon, lol. Found this gorgeous red and white Bel Air in an antique store in Cloverdale, Oregon, on the central coast. It didn't have all the essential bobbin parts, but I think they can be purchased. Found this ad on Ebay and I *think* it has everything missing (plus more). Can anyone let me know if this is enough? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Ori...-/382259672699 Thanks so much for any help!

She's a beauty!

Awesome find! That's one of my Unicorns. All you're missing is the bobbin case. Standard 15 class bobbin case with the 1 o'clock finger. You don't need all the rest of that stuff and I don't think the other race and cover would fit your machine anyway.

This is the bobbin case that you need https://shop.sew-classic.com/Bobbin-...ger-JO1313.htm . She is very pretty.

Oh YAY! You guys are the best. I love how helpful everyone is on this site. Thank you!!
I saw one of these about 4 years ago when I was doing the Row by Row quilting adventure. We went on a jaunt through Washington hitting a bunch of quilt stores, and one of them had a red & white Bel Air like this one as a decoration. I offered to buy it but it wasn't for sale. I've been hoping to find one again ever since. Then last week I walked into an antique store while we were on a family reunion retreat and she whispered my name. hehehe I was thrilled to see it. No box of accessories, but even if she'd just sat on my hutch She's been my unicorn too, Cari. |
She is really adorable. I can see why you brought her home!

A red sewing machine is my collection complete too! (Well, except for a kenmore 1040...and maybe a pink machine) Your machine has me drooling. I tried to scratch that itch with a viking 6470, but he's so messed up! Maybe, as you say, I should just reassemble him and display him on a shelf!
I am attempting to recover from SMAD as well. You give me hope ;-) |
