Laga Handbags Hand-Guided Free Motion on Treadle Machines

http://www.laga-handbags.com - We brought our trainer/manager to the US from Indonesia to attend an industry trade show where she demonstrated the art of hand-guided embroidery on a single-head, treadle sewing machine.

We started our company to provide employment and income for tsunami survivors in an attempt to help them rebuild their lives.

You can read more about what we are doing to provide hope and a better future for victims of disaster by visiting our website www.laga-handbags.com.

hi

do these mnachines do any special stiches or just your standard stich.

Do you import them or buy them localy ?

What do they cost ?

[LagaLady]

deauzie, These are very simple machines, purchased in the local area of our workshop for about $50 or so and I believe they do just the standard stitch. Thanks for your interest!

[LagaLady]

These machines are still being made in China for household use in third world countries as I understand it. Our workshops make these machines available to our workers in Aceh.

$50 is cheap. Do you know what new ones sell for in the local market?

[RickE1poker]

The machine is an Asian made Singer 15, a 15-110, 15-111, or 15-112. These machines are good but have a couple of plastic knobs to be carefull with. I have one a bit like it (yard sale) that was made in VietNam. Some are China, Taiwan, etc.
