Me: I need another sewing machine, I want one to run when the power is out...maybe a Crank Singer? Hmmm...3/4 size... it won't take up much space...I have visions of a 99 model, I think...
Husband: How many machines do you have now?
So I don't think I have so many when I compare notes with friends but yes, I have 5 counting a Serger and a smallish portable Kenmore that I take to classes.
And the machines I have seen for sale so far come with higher price tags then I've wanted to spend so I have just been biding my time...
Then, the husband visits a moving sale at a neighbors last night and brings home this with a victorious smile...
I have a "project car" that is a 1949 Mercury...it is far from driveable...but I hope someday to have the time and $ to finish it. This sewing machine's styling reminds me of my lead sled.
Anyone know anything about these...no manual but it seems to run quiet, I will have to ask the owners about it's provenance tomorrow at church...

Looks like a beauty! Did it come with the table/cabinet too?
What a sweet DH!!! This is so cute. I've never seen a blue machine, but I have seen a 1949 Mercury.....grin. Enjoy both!
Beautiful machine! I love the color. -Brittany
The color on it is so beautiful...very cool machine! I love new (or old) toys!
Love the cabinet. I had a mid-sixties a Kenmore that had cams for decorative stitches. Made a lot of cloths for my kids and myself. My cabinet wasn't nearly as nice as yours, but it sure beat a portable setting on a table. There are times when I wish I still had it.
I want a hand crank machine! This one is gorgeous, by the way. But I want a hand crank one - anyone have recommendations? blessings, marlene
That is so sweet!! He not only remembered but acted on it too! What a beautiful machine and I LOVE the color!! Have fun!

What a pretty machine. I'm visiting from Sew and Sow Farm.
