Very nice! The toy machines are very tempting but I'm already up to my ears in vintage full sized machines. I need to draw the line somewhere. I should ask at Billie's, one of our local sewing shops, if I can take a couple pictures of the ones their repair guy has collected. They're displayed on a high shelf the length of the store. It's a very impressive collection he's put together.

I've seen these on CL and eBay and have always wondered how well they sew. They sure are cute.

I had a similar model and for a mass produced stamped steel chain stitcher, they work great.
