Singer first officially ventured into the toy sewing machine industry in 1910, providing a supreme quality standard for the growing industry and dominating it for the majority of the century. In this video, we'll be looking into the evolution of the Singer Model 20 and Singer Sewhandy, as well as common problems, maintenance, packaging, and my three machines.
Singer's popularization of children's sewing machines led to many off-brand toys using a similar chain stitch mechanism to be produced, one of the more popular ones being Tee-Gee Metal Industries' Junior Miss machine. Though information online is scarce, I own a machine that came with most of the original packaging, so we'll also be looking at that.
CORRECTIONS:
The lead machine that I mentioned in the video isn’t actually made of lead, it’s instead the brand name of the machine. Thanks to Dawn Miller for the correction!
