Singer

Just thought I'd show you my awesome old Singer sewing machine. We found it at an antique store. It has a wooden cover to it, but we couldn't get the cover off at the store to see the machine. The owners had apparently lost the key.
We struggled with the lid, but had no luck. We told the shop owners that it was okay, that we just wanted to see it. They took down our contact information just in case the managed to get it open one day.
Well, a couple days went by and they had gotten it open! They said we could come pick it up anytime -- for free! What a great score!!

It has gorgeous details and Singer still sells parts for all their machines, even the oldest ones. So I'm planning to refurbish it and use it. Can't wait!
