Check out what the UPS guy brought to the house in three large packages yesterday!
The husband got it for me for Christmas, although his surprise was ruined because one box had an old rusty bolt sticking out. I knew he had bought me something on eBay and it was large and that I'd been talking about my grandmother's old treadle Singer. I only had to put two and two together. :)
It's a Singer 115, dated 1915. You should see all the cool attachments that came with it - ruffler foot, tucking foot, binding attachment, what looks to be the original manual, and more. Here's a picture of all that stuff.
The machine is in working condition already, though I had to order a new belt. The cabinet is in pretty good condition but I need to do some cleaning, same with the machine itself.
I'll be sure to post new pictures once we get it all done!
