    This is a small display of toy and miniature sewing machines set up for a social group. While we've been collecting them for 18 years, most at this gathering never knew they existed.

      I have an old Singer sewing machine table (with the machine inside) if you're interested in buying.

      Lisa, I really appreciate the opportunity. We are out of room for any more full-sized machines. We have at least one in every room and some out in a building. We concentrate on the toys and miniatures. We are both really interested in any sewing machines, but try not to let them follow us home. :-)

      Yes, I'll put up a some more from time to time. Any in particular you are interested in? We have a few that are unique, either by their condition, or the manner in which they came to us. Glad you like them!

      Hello, my eyes pop out when I saw the display with all that cute gems sewing machines, I am a collector too ,and the toy machines that I have they sew , some of them I repaired it by myself and another ones that i bought they where sewing, for me is important when they are full functioning I encounter them more attractive in the way that some of them are 100 years old and still working .well. I hope we can see more pics of your collection.
