How fun, and it even has the blue foot pedal to match! The variety of colors on these cool retro machines is really neat to see. Hmm...could be a theme for collecting, try to find one of every color. :)[/quote]
Don't do that to me! I promised myself I would stop at 6 vintage machines. Now I have to start looking for colors! I guess I could find somewhere for some more machines to fit in the house....

they don't know what they have, LOL
IF anyone is interested in a vintage sewing machine in the Ashville, NC area, looks like a a15-90 to me

I quickly looked through your cute blog.
Your work is awesome!!
You have a very nice collection of vintage machines too.
You should start using them in your quilting -if you haven't.
You could start with your Singer 15 for your free motion quilting. You will find the harp space larger than your modern machine.
Please share your work with us in the thread title " Quilts made using vintage machines".
Looking forward to seeing more of your work! Have fun with the vintage ladies and gents!
Thanks for that thread, I will watch it too.
How am I ever going to get all these machines fixed and do some sewing if I'm watching all of you do this great stuff?!!!
Keep it going!

I looked up the 27 and 127 on the ISMACS website and found a similar machine, and the exact cabinet! In the morning when I can see better I will look for the shuttle winder. It would have taken me ages to discover that if not for your narrowing it down for me, thank you!
