Default An Old Kenmore
Just joined the quilting board, found it while seaching for some quilt info. I saw this thread and thought I would share with you this old Kenmore machine I purchased at a yardsale in Pa. for $5.00. It runs & sews like a charm. Not as nice as some I see on here, but still nice.

Welcome! Looks like you have a nice machine there--modeled after the Singer 15s. Not one I'd pass up!

Welcome to the QB. I have a Kenmore also. Just a couple years old. She's such a little work horse. I love your baby. That was definitely a steal. I also have a Singer from the 30's that looks very much like her.

That's a beauty. I have my mother's old kenmore but it's not that old.

Welcome Susan. Your Kenmore is the first 15 clone I have seen with that name. She appears to be in great shape and a great bargain for $5.

Hi and welcome to the QB! It's good to see that sweet little machine fell into good hands. At that price, someone might have bought her to use as a boat anchor.
