Sewing Machines I Currently Own

 

These sewing machines span a time period of 1891 to 1961.  My oldest Singer machine, from 1891, is 113 years old at this writing.  I tend to like to sew on machines of the early to mid 1900's, and although I love my machines that have perfect decals, because I use my machines, I also tend to "fall for" those machines that have been well-loved and well-used over the years.  Often these are not those that look perfect or brand-new, but I have also found these are often a machine that runs very well and sews very nicely.  They most definitely each have a character all their own.

My Treadle units are: One 66 Redeye, a VS2 fiddlebase, and a 27-3.  And of course the 128 hand-crank.

My electric machine is my grandmother's 1934 model 99-13, and it runs beautifully.
