My Favorite Vintage Sewing Machine



This is what my sewing table looks like these days: my green Elna Grasshopper, a Bernina 930 (just behind), a Singer 15-91 (front right), and a Singer 201: three straight-stitch machines and a zigzagger.  The Bernina dates from the early 1980's, the rest are from the early 1950's.
