Sewer 300,

I have to store my things as carefully as I can in containers with lids because I move everything to my cottage in the spring and to my city home in the fall. In the city I have a small room but it is well fitted out with shelving. My husband put shelves in the closecloset and set up two sets of metal shelves. He also got me a steel case with little drawers , meant for a carpenter. It is wonderful for the storage of small findings and needles. A larger drawer at the bottom holds my bobbins. I have labelled each drawer so things are easy to find. Fabric is folded on the shelves in the closet and my tools are in boxes ranging in size from shoe boxes to larger boxes from other sources.Labels are the most important thing.

The pictured machine foot looks exactly like a foot to my mother's Singer which would now be 60 years old. It served as both a zig-zag and ruffler. I know that she made button holes with it. I learned to sew on that machine and I used the foot to put a ruffle on curtains.
