Well used and loved...and will continue to be used and loved! 1926 Singer class 127 vibrating shuttle treadle sewing machine! |
|
The vibrating shuttle is a new contraption for me...and I'm loving it! Works like a dream...instead of the needle going down and immediately back up, it goes down, kinda hiccups, then goes back up---down, bump, up... too neat! |
|
The emblem shows the shuttle shape in the middle of it...and you can see in the upper right corner that the bobbin winder is really different looking! The bobbin isn't a disk but a long spool looking thing...very interesting! |
|
Even has the shuttle design on the side of the treadle! |
|
Beautiful old decals...I'm so afraid to scrub cleaning on it...the gold will come off... |
|
Even has filigree on the cover in the back.... The gold on the decals are worn badly in some places, but mostly still there. |
|
The cabinet has been refinished with wooden drawer pulls put on, but really isn't in very bad shape...It's all wood, not a veneer... |
Garage sales are wonderful things....You never know what you could come across....Saturday, Hubby & I got on our cruiser bikes and headed out to the local garage sales and wouldn't you know it...we came across a find we couldn't resist!!!! So quickly we paid for her and back home we rode and got the truck- loaded her up and brought her home. These pictures were taken soon as we got home...hadn't cleaned her up yet or oiled her...and of course her belt was broken.... I threaded her up and tried her out--sure enough, she lives! A friend had a belt and let me have it....Viola!!! I'm treadling!!! I know I'm gushing, but I'm in love!!!
What a Beauty!!!
