That is the most ancient machine I have seen, I wonder where that originated? I have my Mother's 1936 electric Singer machine with all special separate "add ons" sitting in my tiny hallway, but.....in the recent move, the screws that hold it into the wooden cabinet (that Daddy made), split the wood,  a friend has offered to repair it (sometime!). All the machine needs is the Box to change the Volts from English 240, to Canadian 200 volts, another item that appears to have been lost in the move. The "add ons" are now inside the modern machines.

Last night I found the Warranty Card (10 years) for my Professional Pfaff, bought on January 28, 2012. The first Items I made were 8 cushions for my Teak Sofa and armchair; the latter which I am looking at right now!

The original cost of the materials and purchase of the Pfaff was 1/3rd of the cost that two Upholsterers would have charged me! (Plus I now remember they refused to "Pipe" the edges of the cushions, saying "Material too thick"!). 

Just another (big) frustration.    

Stay warm, the winds and snow will be cold. You will soon be in South Carolina!
