A Poem by Maizy – One of our Wonderful Granddaughters

Posted on October 19, 2012 by Bill Webster

“Maizy” My mom’s voice calls in a voice that tells me she is happy.
The sound swirls around the playroom and makes my heart smile.
It bounces up the stairs and soars through the hall and jumps off the top of my bookshelf…searching for me.
It find me on my couch and wraps me in a hug.
It somersaults around the room on top of my bed and around my chair.
I follow it downstairs to my mom’s office.

“Maizeeeeeeeeeeeee!”

When my mom is mad the sound zigzags around the kitchen.

It slaps against the oven door and zooms past my sister.
It breaks through the window and twists and turns around the playground
and reaches me in the garden
it winds around me really tight
until I finally manage to walk inside.

We’re always excited when we find a Singer FEATHERWEIGHT Sewing Machine to offer, as we know how much they are loved, especially by quilters! This listing features one of the harder-to-find 221 K versions from England, 1964. White or green color depending on how you see it! Either way it’s a very collectible machine, in original case with accessories. Watch video to see it working.

Details:

  • Singer Portable Electric Sewing Machine 221-K in original case with accessories.
  • Number PV973107 with instruction booklet from 1964.
  • Starts easily, appears to run smoothly, but all I did is turn it on as I am not a quilter or seamstress.
  • Condition outside is overall very good to EXCELLENT, with minimum marks on glossy finish. Label residue on lower base and partially missing on Singer logo medallion. One of the 4 rubber “feet” on the base is missing and will need a replacement so it sits level.
  • Original Bakelite pedal is very good with some scuffs. Cords intact and clean.
  • Carrying case with handle is original and has some scratches and tears, but has done a good job protecting the machine. Still good condition.

LOTS of accessories including instructions booklet dated 1964.  Available in our eBay Connectibles Store.
