you are smarter than the average bear, Billy. I hadn't even thought about the times period and what was popular. What would we do without you :lol:

Billy are you there? . . . do you know about my machine? or where I can go to find out more info.
Here I am and I am clueless about the White sewing machines other that they are really well made. I am looking for information about the dating right now and I hope to find something soon.

Sorry I am not any help with this one.......

It's beautiful, and I love the decal. It looks Celtic.

I just want to thank all of you who have helped educate me about Vintage sewing machines. When I joined this board I didn't even know what a Feather Weight was. Now I not only know what one is, I own one. Also had to get a Singer 301, 500, 223, and 774. I also just had to have a pink Atlas and the really cute green Montgomery Ward sewing machine. Thanks for all you pictures and input about those vintage machines. And yes, my name is Kat, and I have a vintage sewing machine adiction. :-)

Well at least your the first to admit it, heck I am still in denial LOL!! My wife came out to the studio and wanted to see what I was working on and I was showing her that machine I painted today and several of the customers machines I had on that side of the studio. And then she turned and looked at my wall unit and asked me "whose are those?" I told her they are mine and she started counting them and asked me why in the hell do I need so many sewing machines I told her because I like them. :lol: :lol:

No joke if you look at my studio right now there are dozens of sewing machines everywhere you turn LOL!! But I dont have an addiction they are all customers machines ;)
