Sewmor 606 |
The colors are quite intense! Note where the spool of thread sits: a build-in niche, it's own little perch. But what if you had a larger spool of thread? Maybe thread only came in smaller spools back then?
You can't help but notice my two Sewmor's are in excellent vintage condition and you know what that means: they were not used very much. Yup, the lure of sewing more didn't happen with the former owners. That's right, the intention was there, the sewing machine was ready (and cute) but there were no more hours in the day, meals didn't get easier or quicker to prepare and clean-up, skills didn't happen just by ownership of a new sewing machine.
Some things never change but I'm hoping someone will see one of these and say "Maybe..."

I LOVE those machines! I have never seen any like these and I have been thrifting for a long long time!
Thanks, Michelle! They also sew quietly and are very smooth. I did see one either on CL or VSM on Facebook, the aqua model, and thought "I have one exactly like that." So I decided to share it!
I have a 1955 model 606. I need a belt. Do u have any idea where I can get one?
I get many of my parts from Cindy Peters. You can email her at stitchesintime@earthlink.net
