Singer

Old treadle sewing machine at Fábrica La Aurora, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

Singer stitching curtains,
Shirts and pantaloons,
As your needle pierces,
Lovely are the tunes.

  3. Perfectly captured image for a Ruby Tuesday. There was a time when there was a Singer in most homes in America, including both of my grandmothers.

  9. I have never seen a red one, always black ones. Maybe the Mexicans painted it in a more brighter colour.

  12. My grandmother had a singer sewing machine only it was painted black. It was a treadle machine that you worked with your feet.
