All of the postings regarding sewing machine history have been very interesting. Being that I am not familiar with lace making machines, I enjoy reading the postings.
As a young teenager, I learned to sew using a Singer Featherweight. During my many years of sewing, I've used a variety of new machines and not-so-new machines. My current favorites are a new Brother PQ1500 and a 30-year old Bernina. But, I've always remembered the old Singer that I used long ago. Recenty I was able to purchase a Singer Featherweight in near mint condition. The friend who got it for me has always maintained that I needed to start a collection of something. Looks like I now have a small collection of sewing machines. Now, in the interest of lace making, it's time to gather my things to go to our weekly lake making gathering.
