Moderators dtel Posted March 20, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 20, 2016 RV is awesome. Looks nice, just put some air in that tire before you blast off, for the correct pressure consult a mechanic. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL Sargent Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) "Would love to know what kind of machine/model number etc???" That is a Pfaff 130 born in 1953, West Germany. I have several old sewing machines including a 1922 Rocking Arm Singer Patcher, but this Pfaff is by far my favorite. Unfortunately the 130s have been discovered and now bring a premium on Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/PFAFF-130-Heavy-Duty-Industrial-Sewing-Machine-Germany-Leather-Denim-Canvas-GUC/311466382137?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20150604093004%26meid%3Dc144cd662ec640c4a8328a6137313b1f%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D131733051578&rt=nc Edited March 20, 2016 by JL Sargent 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL Sargent Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Is that the one used in Night Crossing? I don't think so, but you've got me wondering. Might have to watch that again in the near future to see if I can ID that machine. I had forgotten all about that movie. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been sewing since I was about eight years old. My grandmother was my inspiration! Does my heart good!!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) My grandmother was my inspiration! My Great Grandfather brought home a Singer treadle machine by horse and wagon 1910ish. It was a huge investment for them as they were very poor. They literally lived off the land as farmers and later as moonshiners. My Grandmother told the story of its arrival and how they all watched it get unloaded. She described how elated her mother was as it marked the end of hand sewing all their clothes. Anyway, I now have that cool piece of family sewing history. Edited March 21, 2016 by JL Sargent 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My grandmother made all of my clothes until I was in my teens. I vividly remember her making me flannel nightgown when I was about five years old, all the while warning me not to stand by the open flame heater. Nightgown hadn't been completed five minutes when I backed up to the heater. Needless to say the gown caught on fire...I will never forget the terror in my grandmother's face as she rushed to put the fire out. How I miss the love she always showed me. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I remember being young (both parents died when i was 8 so it had to be before then), i was sent to bed and thought that i saw a shadow at my bedroom door. I called for help and my Grandmother told me it was the devil coming to get me. She did love me though. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nanny "grandmother" was a very religious woman. She saw to it that we attended church regularly, regardless of my mother and father's lifestyle. I once got a Bible with my name engraved on it for attending church every Sunday for a year straight while living with my grandmother.
