It sews much better after the needle is placed in the right position and threaded properly and the tension adjusted. A picture of her is posted in the picture thread.
My "new" machine is a Singer Creative Touch 1036 that I bought new around 1979 or 1980. She's a wimp compared to a 15-91 but she can zig zag.
Penny, I saw your machine in the Photo section! I am so glad you got the 15 working, and you are going to keep it! I love my 15-88 treadle! Those machine are just workhorses!
Also, Dorothy your collection in the Photo section is really nice too! I have that two-tone 301! Love your whole collection, though!
