My Deluxe Zig Zag Beauty

I might be getting a new bad habit.  It seems I have a thing for sewing machines.  Really, how many does a girl need?  It turns out, I need five.  My Bernina (that's my baby), my Pfaff Grand Quilter (that's my work-horse), my Vogue Stitch by Janome (it was such a good deal, how could I pass it up?), my Gammill longarm (just to make all the guys who come to my house go, "Oooooh!"), and now I have added another to my collection.


This turquoise Universal Deluxe Zig Zag sewing machine from 1959 just had to come live at my house!  I know it's from 1959 because it came with the original receipt.  Such a beauty.  I haven't even used her yet.  I just sit and stare at her.

Here are some more glamor shots for you!


Sew pretty!

  3. Very pretty! You can never have too many sewing machines. I think I have about 20 right now - but don't tell my husband!

  7. That's a gorgeous machine! I have recently come down with the same condition. I now have a German handcrank that I can't figure out how to thread, but love to gaze at. I have some research to do!
