You know, i have 2 machines in my basement that belonged to my great grandmother. One has the receipt in the cabinet drawer and it was purchased in 1932. One is not electric, it's an old black Singer. The other is tan colored of i remember right and it is electric. When i was in girl scouts as a kid i used to use the black one to sew my badges on but haven't used it since then and the belt is rotted. I've never thought about using them for some reason. Maybe after i get my baby lock back i will see if they can get the electric machine running.

Now you know why a lot of us have more than one sewing machine. My back up machine is Singer 301, bought when they were cheap. I have a treadle machine too.
I've tried piecing a quilt top with my serger and didn't like it.
