Old Brown Singer

Back to the basics.   That is what this machine is.    I learned to sew on an old brown Singer in the late 60’s.  My mom’s was fancier than this one.  It actually made some fancy stitches  and  this is just a straight stitch.  I could not wait to get a new fancy sewing machine,  it was what I asked for when I graduated from high school.  I researched and chose a JC Penney machine.  It served me well for years, while my mom kept using the old brown Singer.  Eventually mom’s machine was retired.  Where it went is actually sketchy.   Mom moved on and has had several new machines.  I have had a couple of newer Singers,  a Brother that worked hard for many years,  but always on the lookout for an  Old Brown Singer.  I found this one and another at yard sales.  They are sisters.  The one sister needs a little help, but this one keeps plugging away....
