Vintage Sewing Cabinet



A few posts back I mentioned my antique thread/sewing case.  This is it. I found it at an antique mall in Florida, while visiting, a few years back.  It came loaded with jars full of buttons, threads, darning egg, and lots more fun accessories!

My new machine!!




Have not had a chance to try it out yet.  Hoping it works well.  If not I still have a gorgeous side table!

Happy 4th of July!! I got a new.......

sewing machine!!!  Singer Fashion Mate 257 in a GORGEOUS cabinet.  I think the machine is from the 1970's, it is super heavy, solid metal!!  The cabinet looks like something from the 1940's or so. 

It also came with an ottoman chock full of old and new sewing items!  Oh yeah, the best part.....all free!

Tomorrow I will post a pic of my new beauty.  This is sure to get me back on track with my quilting projects!
