Ohhh, nice machine! Is that the one you found in your basement Sharon? :lol:

What a beauty!!!!!!!! I can understand why you are excited to sew with her.

The machine is from the early '70's...I had the same machine but traded it in for a MonkeyWards machine, which I traded for my Bernina...at least I made 1 good trade.

I love the older mechanical machines. They sew through anything and are real work horses. Have fun with your gm's machine.

Mine is a 1976 if that helps any :D:D:D

cool, thanks for sharing (I have my grandmothers old home machine)

That is exactly like my Mom's. She and I bought the same machine around 1981 or 1982 at Sear's. It was in a small sewing table and had 2 drawers on the cabinet. My Mom's is at the church in our quilt room. It is made of real metal, we paid something like $129 for each. It had cams that you put in the top to make the various designs. It still sews like a true workhorse. Mom's has never been in the shop because I kept it cleaned and oiled for her. I know you will truly enjoy your Granny's machine.

my mother has one of the smae machine and she bought hers new in January of 1978 and still sews like a new one in fact she has a new singer table top one and she still goes back to the old one

same sorry

Lucky you. Enjoy.
