My mom has been telling me of this Singer sewing machine which she "inherited" from her mother, who originally belonged to her husband (my grandfather).
So, all in... this piece is easily 70-80 years old!
It's an old rusty & broken down machine, which is just kept away at her house.
When I told her I intend to get an industrial sewing machine to work on the heavier materials, she suggested this machine immediately.
So, she had it serviced & fitted with a motor. Knowing that it's the typical black colored machine, I asked her to have it painted in a nice cream colour while the workers are still on it.
And finally, here it is... all the way from Indonesia, to Singapore.
It's definitely an antique, & it's now passed on to me! :D
Such a priviledge, to own something as beautiful & meaningful as this, which spanned 3 generations :)
