- In this video, I show you my beautiful 1910 Singer 127-3. She's 109 years old, just in case you don't want to do the math! I did fail to mention that she does take special needles, which you can get online, or from your local Singer man. My Singer man is in his eighties, and has been working on Singers for 55 years!
It is nice that her decals are worn. To me it means she has been well loved. Just love the sound of the old machines. Wish we were closer, would love to get one for my granddaughter.
I love her worn decals, too!! Just watch FB Marketplace and Craigslist, you'll find one!
I love her. And you two
I love you, too!
My daughter bought a house and the previous owners left a vintage sewing machine behind, we didn’t know that you could still get parts for them, I’ll have to tell her. It will be fun putting her back together.
Yes it will, and she will have a machine that makes beautiful stitches!
Thanks for the thorough vlog on this machine and especially for sharing where to buy the parts. I paused the vlog, went to the website, and purchased the hand crank and thread pin for my reproduction version. I would have gotten the electric motor also but it was sold out. I'm sure you'll be able to sell her quickly but I think it's gonna be hard for you to let her go. Now I want to see all your sewing machines.
I'm so glad you found your parts! I will do a video for each of my girls I let go, and yes, it is hard to let them go, I love them! However, you should see how happy people are when they buy them! They love them just like I do!
Wow, that’s a beauty Carla! What a peculiar little bobbin - the bullet bobbin!😃Very fun to see. You and I had the vintage sewing machine vibe going on today! Yay!!
Isn't the bobbin fun?! So crazy that we both did our vintage machines the same day! I love your girls! I have a Kenmore that I will NOT be culling from my herd. She's so pretty she'll make your heart stop!
Please show us!!
I’m dying of laughter, my family is always pestering me to lose some of my machines. I thought I was the only one!
We're cleaning out the apartment we just rented...the previous tenant went to jail/evicted so everything was left....and i found this exact machine in 1 of the upstairs bedroom closets and there was also a sewing machine table in the hallway with another vintage machine but it's not Singer. Let's just say this girl is happy to clean someone else's mess for once! Lol.
She’s a beauty
Thanks, Karma! She is isn't she?
I have a similar machine that belonged to my grandmother. It needs some major work. I’ve been waiting to take it to someone to repair. Maybe I’ll attempt it myself.
Hay you two. Really enjoyed this video. She is a beauty. Thanku for sharing. x
Hi Anna!!
@@StayStitching xx
i just wanna say tysm for this vid, i decided to restore this sewing machine thts been in my family forever n this video was so helpful to start understanding her and how to fix her!
also decided to teach myself how to sew on her! lol wish me luck
You can do it, and you will enjoy it for the rest of your life!
That’s a beautiful machine Carla! I remember my Aunt had a lot of vintage machines she cherished. This one, she would probably offer to purchase from you if she were still with us! I didn’t know you had so many machines, wow!
Thanks, Myra!!
Really interesting. Thank you. I am so sad my mom threw her old Singer out last Year . She is 82 years old and had her the most of her grown up life . Love your mashine
That is too bad, Lene! However, you can get yourself another one, and know that she has been a loved and useful member of someone's home. In fact, I think you need to get one to fill that hole a little bit. Sewing machines are good for the soul.
Vintage machines are a joy to sew on! I have a couple Featherweights! They never fail me! BTW...your hair cut looks great on you! 😊
Aren't they the best?! Thanks about the hair, I am loving it!
Oh. I so want her. So beautiful. but I live in Oklahoma on a limited income, darn it! 😞💓
I'll bet they are fairly easy to find in OK, and at a reasonable price, too. OK is WAY less expensive than CO! We lived in Keyes and Boise City for a year each. Housing was half or less, what it is in CO.
This was so informative. These machines are works of art. Maybe my basic singer 2277 if I keep it long enough will be in the same category
Doc, if it's metal, it'll last a hundred years! If it has plastic gears, it won't.
I thought I was the only one who loves to hear a sewing machine run!
Oh gosh, no! I love my old girls SO. MUCH! I could listen to them all day!
Love to see all the TLC you give your machine.
Good info..good to know...my first machine was my Grandmother 's machine when I was 18 many years ago
I love my old machines!
Carla, she is a beauty. I hope you show us the rest of your children. I have 5 sewing machines and I love everyone one of them.thry all have personalitys and only one is a little picky about the way things are set up to sew. I have found that each one has a best stitch and they all are good stitchers overall. My husband thinks I just need one machine ......but now he has fallen in love with them also. Thanks for sharing your beauty with us.
Troy loves them too! There is just so much to admire about them, who can resist? I will show you all my girls, I promise!!

Holy shit, she's a speedy one!
If you think she's fast, you should see the Singer 301. That's our fastest machine!
She's beautiful. I've been wanting to get one that comes in a case, to travel with, but out here they want like 150-300 and alot of them have rust ( I guess cuz of the moisture and salt in the air lol) ty for sharing
Hi Lola! Thanks for watching!
Best of luck but the case is really heavy and I wouldnt trust lifting it up by the handle. The case is good for keeping out dust though:)
Hi Carla, so interesting seeing how these old machines work 👌. I have recently inherited an old machine that has the same type of bobbin and case. I haven't tried to use it though as I think something might be missing 😖. It's lovely to have it in my sewing room though 😉. The quote...."they don't make them like this anymore" comes to mind 😋😁😘
Well, Sally, do you know what model it is? If it's a Singer, it can be put to rights. If it's not, it can probably be put to rights, but with a lot more effort. In the meantime, they do make good company and are excellent listeners.
@@StayStitching I have a booklet somewhere... I'll have to hunt it out 😁👍💕😘
2 years later. But i just scored a 1941 singer not sure which model the 127 or 128 but... its very clean and i can manualy move the needle. The table its in is on the other hand needing some good old tlc. Looking it up.... they are not cheap. But got mine free. Tho i had to haul it a block and a half. 😁 great video.
J'ai la chance de posséder une 127 ayant appartenu à ma grand mère. Je confirme tout ce qui a été dit, c'est une excellente machine. Ceux qui ont eu la chance d'en posséder une doutent des soit disant progrès des machines modernes. C'est une machine très simple à utiliser, il n'y a aucun réglage sauf la tension du fil supérieur. On est surpris de constater qu'elle pique droit alors que les machines modernes ont tendance à coudre à droite ou à gauche, il faut bien maintenir le tissus & ça va quand même de travers. Cette machine fait peu de bruit. Ça na l'air de rien mais cela rends la couture beaucoup plus agréable. Enfin, contrairement aux machine modernes bas de gamme capricieuses ou le fil casse tout le temps. Ou on est toujours les mains dans le cambouis à enfiler le fil, changer la cannette bref faire mille choses sauf coudre. Cette vieille machine couds, le fil ne casse pratiquement jamais. Les mains sont rarement dans le cambouis ce qui fait dire qu'il y a d'un côté des machines "aux milles possibilités" mais de l'autre, il y a celles qui font réellement le JOB comme la 127.
I agree! I LOVE my old girls! None of my modern machines come close!
Beautiful! I have been in search of a feather weight for a while now but have not been willing to pay the price asked on the machines I have seen. 😏 I also want to find a flat top treadle.
Exactly how many machines do you own? I have six, but only one is an antique. The others are just "old".
I think I have about 25. I have four modern machines, one I could let go of. I love my Faetherweight, she's a keeper! Don't pay more than $300, and that's with her box and at least some of her goodies. You can find them for that price, you just have to be vigilant.
Can you tell me what kind of needles they use? I had one of these machines given to me and I would love to get it going.
Lovely video I just got an 1893 treadle machine and somehow I lost the bobbin cover on the way back. It has been in one family through three generations and it looks absolutely lovely. How do we figure out which model it is? And it also where to get replacement parts what do you recommend? And how about a replacement manual? Thanks for doing these videos and keeping these beautiful machines alive
Helen Howes Sewing Machines will sell you what you need. She's helped me many times.
I paid $5 for only the bobbin tire, completely ridiculous.. I bought it from my sew repair guy, he tells me that some other place it's more expensive.. They must cost $0,25 cent to make.. Thank you for the great explanation. I got the same but my bobbin wider is at the bottom..
Can you please add a link to the website that tells you the DOM based on the serial number. Thanks!
Where can I order the motor I have a 127 but the wires are all cut off
Hi which motor are you using? I need to install a new one on my 127
does the book match the machine I got 1913
There's another way to secure stitching. Make a few stitches, release presser foot and push work through a tiny bit. Then return work back to first stitch and lower foot. Carry on stitching as normal. This means you have overstitched the start and it is secure.
Repeat this process at the end.
My shuttle won’t tighten the tension. Do you have any suggestions?
Marian,
You might need to clean your shuttle or sometimes the thread has worn a groove in the spring and then you need to find another. Lint collects under the spring on the side of the shuttle, also there could be rust. Find the right size screw driver and remove the screw and clean it all out and then polish with Mother's Mag polish using a soft scrap of tee shirt..
Sharon
Hello lovely machine you have ! I happen to have the same model and am wondering if it takes a specific type of needle ? Thank you in advance:)
They take a 15 x 1 needle. I hope you enjoy yours; I loved mine. I sold her because I am trying to clear out some room, but she was a good one!
@@StayStitching thank you so much can't wait to give her a try!
I have a 99 model made in 1922.
The belt is dry rotted , so it is going to break.
I was going to go to home depot and get a gasket for a larger plastic pipe.
The ones that use a gasket.
Comment placer la cannette dans son support?
hello it's a great video it was worth the time to wait for it please kindly film how to operate the sewing machine electric foot pedal how its used to sew please kindly film ok?please kindly reply back ok?thank you very much
You're welcome, Frank! The electric foot pedal works just like any machine, I'll make sure to show it on my next video.
🥰
I have a singer machine how much can i get for it??
@@idonotconsent how much they go for
hello love the very beautiful video please as a friendly reminder can you please kindly film how to operate the sewing machine electric foot pedal how it's used please ok? Please kindly reply back ok? Thank you very much
Sure I will
Love the hair cut Carla! I don't know how you are going to decide on which of your 'babies' you are going to put up for adoption, a hard decision to make that's for sure! I see allot of feather weights at the auction we follow and I've been tempted to get one for future quilting classes. What's your thought on the feather weight machines?
I think the way I'm going to decide is by knowing which ones I can never part with and knowing someone has to go:( The Featherweight is an excellent little machine! My Featherweight is on my forever list, I love her to death! I recommend, but would not pay more than $300, and that's for one with her box and a lot of her goodies.
@@StayStitching Ohhh thank you for the heads up! I will definitely be keeping my eye out for one now!
ok singer 503
She's beautiful and she's underpriced. If I was allowed to buy any more machines I'd pay for the shipping and she'd be on her way to me today
Thank you so much, Teri! Pueblo is an economically depressed city-she won't bring as much here as she would elsewhere in the US. I have had people from other states with relatives near here snatch up my machines, though, so maybe I'll start her at $125.
@@StayStitching Even in a depressed city I say start out at bust out retail, you never know who may be looking for that exact model and would be willing to travel to pick her up. We drove 2 hours to get out vintage Singer. Good luck!
singer made portable electrics in about 1920
hello karla in your most recent video I see you have what looks to be a singer 328k sewing machine in the background it would be very beautiful to watch you thread it up and do some sewing with it please ok? Please kindly reply back ok? Thank you very much
You might be referring to my 503. It is not working right now, and I'm really bummed about it...
Did you sell this yet
Yep, I found her a new home!
Loading the bobbin into the shuttle was a complete disaster. Sorry.
Do you have any other singer machines
I will look. I'm not sure I have any other Singers I plan to let go of. Are you in CO? I've never shipped a machine before, and I'm not sure I want to, LOL!
Stay Stitching I’m in Pueblo
Oh yes, Kathy!! BTW, if you ever need anything Singer, John Grimes is your guy.
Gosh, can you get any prettier?
Oh, you!
Oi quel
Mere pass singer ki purani machine hi lagbhag 80 90 Sal purani
