Singer machine - what can you tell me?
#13
I was so happy to see this article on thumb tabs as I have never heard of this before. The Cleveland machine that I recently found has the tab hanging down and I wondered why it was designed this way. After reading the article I sat down and raised the presser foot but pushed in on the tab and the thread came to an immediate stop. I readjusted and then pulled out on the tab after raising the presser foot and sure enough the piece of material pulled thru so smoothly. Thanks again.

Check with Jenny at Sew-Classic.com. I get all my parts there. You can find your serial number info. on the ISMACS web site. This machine, as Charlee stated, is a 128 type. You will need to buy long bobbins. They are still available. I just got 10 for my 128. MUV really likes them and can instruct you with her videos. Using long bobbins is a little different and you have to get used to it. Changing back and forth could be a challenge for you, if you don't sew much.
Watch MUV's videos and then decide.

I foolishly bought this from my friend, as she was moving, and discovered it has no cord or foot. I love the way it looks, but don't see myself putting in more money to get it working. Maybe I should find a loving home for it. Just don't want to have to ship it, as it is pretty heavy.
