Vintage Sewing Machine Shop.....Come on in and sit a spell
If by regular you mean the same ones that say a singer 15 o 66 would use (forget the designation 15 x something) then yes, thats what it it takes. Oh wait..... I am just assuming we are working on an old singer?

Laura, would you tell me what the last date is on your machine and the serial number? We just picked up an old free this weekend and it was complety frozen up but yesterday hubby got it to sew after 2 days work. The irons are ok but it was in a parlor cabinet that is toast. It sat outside for two years. Our daughter found it and brought it to us.
Your machine turned out really pretty. Hope to get some of ours looking as good as yours.

here are two vintage singers that need someone to rescue them. they are just little dust bunnies. and it sounds like the seller is just trying to unload them now.

If'n I had the cash, I'd be on my way down there to get them. I'd like to play with that 101. I could make a peg leg for the cabinet. LOL.

I was asked to move this to this thread from the other one I posted on because it is more of a discussion group. I was looking for some help on identifying an old sewing machine I purchased. I have a couple of photos, one closeup of the metal logo, and some other longer shots. I searched all the google images trying to find this logo, but was unsuccessful. If you have any info, it would be greatly appreciated. If not, that's ok, I had a great time looking at everyone's antique sewing machine

Someone suggested that it might be a Demorest??? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I love old things and might have a go at cleaning up this beauty
