My “new” sewing machine, purchased on eBay, arrived today. I have named her Sylvia. She is a Singer 507, and she was made in 1975. She is very similar to the sewing machine I had in America before I moved to England.
Sylvia came with a nicely-done instruction manual, which someone scanned from an original and printed on a colour printer, then spiral-bound. She also has a genuine Singer foot pedal and a new re-wired electric plug. My little daughter and I sewed on her all afternoon, and she works great.
Here are some photos, because I just have to show her off! She’s so beautiful…
Happy Sewing!
Hello, Sylvia. You have a wonderful home now.
ebay in England, I long for a Treadle Singer Lotus, which is common there! Here we have mostly Singer Red Eye decals, I like them too, but long for a Lotus! Congratulations on your new machine, enjoy her!
