Those old machines are so much better than the machines made today. And they sew better! I resurrected my grandmother's old black Singer and I have my great-grandmother's Wheeler and Wilson (pre-Singer) machine that I hope some day to have restored. Love them!<br />Pegg Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113756304449398701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7474271316278058173.post-79595338772272512972015-09-03T14:33:53.813-04:002015-09-03T14:33:53.813-04:00Me too!
