Does anyone else here enjoy sewing with White or Domestic sewing machines? It seems like they aren't very popular at all but I just love the ones that I own.

I have this very machine in excellent condition with all accessories etc from my MIL. My husband sewed a tent on it from a kit or pattern, and I pieced my first quilt! I need a new belt tho. Do you know where I could find one?

Can you take your old belt to a sewing machine shop or measure the inside diameter.? Even for a White this is an usual machine.

I have a White Jeans Machine that is a real workhorse. I got it around 1995. Service it occasionally and it's never had any problems. My daughter backed the car over it, and except for a few scratches it was fine.

White sewmaster, 1951 for sale

Excellent machine for sale to any appreciative buyer. I'm only asking $50, and you need to move it. I am downsizing my home, and it's currently in my garage in Madison, Wisconsin. The belt needs to be replaced, but it worked perfectly until that broke maybe 15 years ago. I'm sure a good cleaning and new belt will make it good as new. All the original parts and manual are with it, as is the original chair. Since photo size is severely limited on this forum, I'd be glad to email photos. My email is [email protected].
