HarrisonFamily Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) Hi, Before Christmas I was looking at getting my 11 year old daughter a sewing machine for us to share - I have no experience apart from many years ago at school - I got so confused at the number available, the price range and functions I gave up...its only really for making toys etc... I have just seen this on ebay click Does anyone have any experience ? It has no instructions but hoping to find a model number somewhere.... Thank you Helen Edited January 16, 2016 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Actually looks good and I am sure you would get a model number off the rating plate maybe underneath but for the money if you are picking it up I think it's good. Just my opinion and suitable for a first machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I agree, that looks like a good 'starter' machine. Might be worth emailing the seller about the plate as mentioned above so you can search for a manual before buying, but you'll be able to work out most of it if you're familiar with a sewing machine.

Valkyrie Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 It does look pretty good. Just got carried away and found someone selling a Singer which is the same as my mum's. I killed hers! But the vintage ones - so sorely tempted by a hand crank featherweight one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
