Vintage Sewing Machine Shop.....Come on in and sit a spell
It is so hard to watch someone you love go through this. This addiction will undoubtedly help you through it--give you something else to think about. Good thoughts to you and yours.

I bought a 301 on ebay a while back. It came with a box of cams, I just got it out to look it over good and couldnt find where to put the cams. when I got the manual out to look up the info I realized it was for a 500 series. I finally realized the error of my thinking. Now need to get the right manual downloaded. cant wait to try this machine out!
You will love your 301, I have one and she sews like a dream. Enjoy. I also have a 500 and between the 2 I can do anything.

Also, the left button on the foot pedal has come off. It looks like it should just pop right back on but I can't get it to do it! Any suggestions?
This is my "free baby" from a nice lady I met on Craig's List. I probably need to take her in for a good physical but not sure I can lift her. My DDIL says "she's heavy"!! LOL

sewclassic.com has a replica of a 301 manual available free. AnnieRose, my 301, just finished another quilt. She sews so straight none of the blocks needed squaring and the sides measured the same.

Would anyone have a source for dating Domestic's? I think she's probably from the late 1800's but haven't found any dating records.
Take care Kathie and hopefully you'll have time to enjoy some sunshine this weekend.

I have been out of pocket lately. My husband and I have a turtle farm and it is turtle egg season. Glad to hear all is well from the weather. Just catching up on all the pretty machines that have shown up. I enjoy looking at all the machines for sure. I tripped on a Pfaff 230 for $10 in a really ugly carrying case. The next day, my uncle-in-law bought by a cabinet, purely by chance, that it fit in nicely. I cleaned and oiled it up and it appears to be the strongest and fastest machine I have, which is pretty amazing for 30+ machines. Does anybody know where I can download a free manual for it? It is the automatic one, with the zz, and other embroidery stitches.
