Abandoned Singer - Sulby 2014
Sony A7 + Summilux-R 50mm f/1.4​

My friends' daughter has bought this property and will soon move in to start fixing it up. We took a walk through yesterday, a treasure trove of things left behind and abandoned.

Thanks for looking. Comments always appreciated.

Shouldn't it be in this thread or gallery? Imagine everybody making new thread with pic of their sewing machine...

Not in the least bit pointless, in my opinion. Interesting old machine, well captured. I like it.

Dust it off, oil it, and you'll have a perfectly serviceable piece of sewing equipment. I made my curtains on its bigger sister (1923 Singer 66K). Bobbins, needles & feet from current Singer production should fit this machine perfectly. This link will help you tell how old she is. It's a 15K, which IIRC would have been made at Singer's Kilbowie, Scotland plant.

A lovely piece that deserves a little TLC and probably some regular exercise!
