I own three vintage machines and they are my favourite machines to use . Not only do they look much prettier on camera, they work so much better, are powerful, smooth running and fast. If you are considering buying a vintage sewing machine for yourself, this will go into my thoughts on why they are so great, where to find them, what to look for, and how to care for them!
*Edited to add: In the cleaning and maintanence section, I mention the possible use of vinegar on vintage machines. However, I have since learned that vinegar can destroy the decals, so stick to using sewing machine oil to clean your machine. ☺️
