sewing machine

My husband Manny has been going to auctions a lot lately at shackeltons and vittoria and he always comes home with goodies for me. He bought me a singer 99k antique sewing machine about 3-4 months ago. I've been busy with taking care of my parents health that I haven't really been able to use it and enjoy it. But, for the past 3-4 weeks I've cleaned it and oiled it up and it works so great! It's so pretty too with the black and gold accents and is a great looking machine! It has the original manual and some parts and the motor on it works great. I use this machine to make my origami butterflies and for sewing daichi, mika and emi's quilts. They are getting so close to getting done!

I have 3 singer sewing machines and 1 Norelco antique one that is for heavy duty sewing. The singer 99k is my fav and i'm thinking of selling my others to buy a janome or a singer!
