Here's a vintage New Home - just after I brought it home, prior to cleaning (note the dust!). I got it a month ago for my daughter-in-law who is learning to sew. It sews like a dream.
I recently got a Singer 201-2, so we each had new/old sewing machines to use.
1st project we did together was rescue from our basement an old oak couch hubby & I had for 27 years. She & our son are artists & chose bright colors. I think she is hooked - and she loves the color of this machine!
Question for Billy - when you have time, can you please check year for me - model 532, serial # 39493, J-A 30? Thanks.
Anyone know where I can get attachments?

Thank you Montanajan and Dingle, my purple New Home needs more work to sew properly.
I need to clean the thread path more as my thread gets dirty when I sew and the machine is noisy.
I bought the machine because she's purple. :D

I have a New Home treadle and just bought a fairly modern (1970s?) for $5.00 from Habitat Restore. The treadle is in North Georgia and I'm down south. I think I looked it up once and its around 1899. Maybe little brother will post a picture, its a beautiful flip top cabinet.
