It sure does!! Being in California my whole life I have lived with many Mission Style furniture pieces, and I dearly love them. Years ago I made a huge mistake and sold a 1930's Mission Style chair for about 1/4 its worth...I guarantee I will never do that again!! Anyway, Mission Style has a very dear place in my heart. My Grandma lived in a beautiful little Spanish style bungalow on the coast in southern CA for many years, and her house was filled with authentic Mission Style furniture.

We used to have a mission style couch, lamp table and library table. DH gave them away one day. GGGGRRRRRRR (He hated the couch)

Get the 221K, Singer has a few numbers and allotments messed up in their records but for the most part they are dead on.

I'm gonna ask for pictures, but what kind of price would I be looking at?

Thanks.

I would be careful of this one, it looks like the bed has been repainted with an enamel or something. Too glossy for something so crackly............

Kathie, Cute machine!
Are you and Nancy going to attend the Gold Country Treadleon gathering Sept. 10th?

I do believe that the host may just have your bobbin plate for that machine somewhere in her stash of saved parts. That machine reminds me of the Cinderella machines.

Monica I am planning on coming. We have been crazy busy lately, but things should settle down soon! I have the TOGA on my calendar!

Yes I plan on coming. That would be nice if Cathy had the bobbin plate for me. Thank you for suggestion that. Kathie
