Vintage Sewing Machine Shop.....Come on in and sit a spell
Thanks for the pics, Monica. I love the fact that you can switch to a straight stitch and then zigzag with no plates to lose or get separated from the machine. Are the Necchis the only machines that have this capability? Not all Necchis after this one have this feature, so I wonder why they stopped incorporating it into the later model design. I think it's so cool.

vintagmotif,
That is a super neat machine. Joey likey!
I noticed a trap door on top. Does it use cams? If so could you post a pic of one. We have a set we have been trying to identify.

I have made my own jeans, which is a huge endeavor. There is a learning curve with making jeans, patterns and fabrics that work together. First couple of pair of jeans I made became my jeans for yard work. I wouldn't take the leg of a bought jean apart like you have done. That just seems like too much work. Luckly, all these vintage machines can tackle sewing through layers of denim without any troubles. So, sewing seams and hems are a breeze!
