Cecilia1935 and her Singer Sewing Machine

[ticinese67]

Simpatica la demostradora de como funciona la Singer en el año 1935,Huaaaá yo tená tres añitos, y estaba encantada de ver a mi hermana mayor, como cosía y cantaba,...los tangos de C. Gardel. Gracias por estos videos, ¿no dicen que recordar es volver a vivir, ? Igual SI.

@chris42999 Thank you very much for your lovely comment! ;o)

I love your Mum's accent.

Is it Welsh, Irish, Cornish or Scots?

[Nneka1963]

@InweTaralom HI There, Thank you for watching and leaving your comment! My Mum is Irish! From Ennis, Co. Clare. But has been living here in London for over 53 years!!!

Hi, I also have a 99 model and it belonged to my gran. Years ago someone borrowed it from her and changed the tension and my gran never managed to get it right again. Do you think your mum might know how to change the tension of the stitching? Thanks very much for any help.

[Nneka1963]

@MsHelen30 Hi there MsHelen, I was contacted by another YouTuber who would be able to explain it to you! Her name is "Muvandfarve". My Mum's in Ireland and the moment, so I am unable to ask her! Happy sweing! Nnek@ ;o) x

What a charming little video!

[Nneka1963]

@brindlebug Thank you for taking the time out to watch our video! :o)

I just discovered I have a Singer 99K after my great aunt. I shall check the serial number like you did. I got it only because nobody else wanted it, and I could not throw it away. Maybe we could start using it for odd jobs that all ways turns up. It's the only sewing machine in the house. Thanks for this video :-)

[Nneka1963]

Hi Turtlefromthenorth, thanx for watching and leaving your comments! I'm glad that you liked my video. My Mum used to have an electric sewing machine but gave it away to a friend. I think my Mum prefers her "Singer" and she's great with it! Let me know how old your's is! :D

Happy sewing, Nnek@ ;o)

[turtlefromthenorth]

Hi again

I finally got to check the serial number and if I have done it correctly my machine is a Singer 99K produced in 1933. I remember my great aunt told me it was hand operated when she bought it, but as soon as she could afford it, a motor was fitted to the machine. There's even a tiny green book that shows down payments over a few years. The electrical wires have been replaced some time around 1990, there are some signs of use but it seems to work just fine.

Best Rergards :-)

Sorry I can't spell. the serial number Y9144574

I remember my grandmother that keep her old sewing machine which she loves it, than later she gave up using that sewing machine and she sold to secret becuase it highly value as she wants to move to nursing home but sadly my grandmother died 2 years ago she is only 93 years old she would be 95 now., she told me some years ago when she was young woman things were very difficult times they always use manual by hands but very clever.

[Nneka1963]

Hi my Dear Dexter! Thanx very much for watching and sharing your story about your Grandmother. WOW, 93 years old is very good age!!!

Take care and look after yourself!

Lot's of Love, hugs & kisses,

I can´t sew... but the sewing machine looks very old to me! :P xD Sweet dog! xD

[Nneka1963]

Hi my Dear Captain Jojo!!! Thanx very much for taking the time out to watch and leave your comment!

Tola is my Mum's dog! He is CRAZY!!! Like the rest of my Family!!! *lol*

Luv Deine Nnek@ ;o) xxx

[FSTOPDR]

I would like to do similar research on the only Hoover my mom ever owned... I still have it. Damn thing, though, while it would eat buttons in a heartbeat, it would not sew one on to save it's life!

I loved this... and the 1936 video, wow, what an eventful year!!

[Nneka1963]

Hi my Dear Dave!!! Thanx a million for watching and leaving your very funny comment which made my Mum and I laugh out loud!!! :D :D

I'm also very glad and pleased that you liked my 1936 video too!!! It was an amazing year with so many important world events going on. I said "WOW" too!!!

Lot's of Love, hugs & kisses,

Cecili@ :-) & Nnek@ ;o)

Oh, I forgot to tell you. If you take a stocking and put it over the vacuum cleaner's hose (hose on hose? nah) you can put the attachment into places (get your mind out of the gutter!)

and safely retrieve lost coins and earrings, old crisps, lost winning lottery tickets, etc.

I learned that from Kim and Aggie. If you don't know them, search on Youtube, "how clean is your house bbca"

[Nneka1963]

I bet that you look GREAT in a pair of stocking & earrings Dave!!! *lol*

Oh yes, I have heard of Kim & Aggie, I have seen them before on UK TV when I was over here one time. Very funny Ladies! :D

[FSTOPDR]

oh GREAT, THAT'S HOW RUMORS GET STARTED!

btw, the Hoover I have is the 1953 model 63 and there are vids on youtube about it. I thought it was older. I have no clue what its worth and the most places laugh when we give them the letter of what bag it uses when we want to replace the bag.

[Nneka1963]

"What bag it uses!!!" *lol* Thanx for making me laugh again my Dear Dave!!! :D xxx

[Nneka1963]

Hi Our Dear Peter, I just read out your comment to my Mum and we both had a great LAUGH!!! :D :D Thanx a million for watching and we are both looking forward to seeing you again very soon!

Lot's of Love, hugs & kisses,

Cecili@ :-) & Nnek@ ;o)

[blueclouds4me]

I so enjoyed this. I love to sew and my machine looks a tad different but your mum's is a beauty!!! I do have a singer in storage that was my mother's and sits in a wood table/stand but I can't bear to dispose of it. I know my mother made lots of pretty dresses on it so it has many beautiful memories for me;)

Always such a pleasure to see you and mum;)

Hugs

Marylou
