Terri and Bob said...: Fabulous. How many do you already own? Two or three or just one?; July 3, 2009 12:46 PM
Struggler said...: What incredible pieces of machinery. It really amazes me that anyone could make anything on these!

Maybe we'll feel the same way about typewriters in a few years...; July 3, 2009 3:16 PM
JanMary said...: Lovely items.

My aunt has the one owned by my granny - on it's own table with foot pedals.

I bought an antique one about 15 years ago which has a "shuttle" type bobbin in it (instead of the usual round type).

I even used it once to sew some curtains!!!; July 3, 2009 3:41 PM
Cass @ That Old House said...: Aren't they just gorgeous? The old machines had such style.

Lovely! .. Cass; July 3, 2009 7:14 PM
