Singer "Updated" sewing5
I LOVE my ole Singer products.... well, i loved their products when they were made in the USA & were the Singer Company.

Singer is now just a cheap 'budget brand' under the SVP company, that is mainly sold at discount retailers.... pretty much gone are their HIGH end quality machines, with classic trademark Singer features. Gone is the Singer shop & service.... bring in the DISPOSABLE machines made in China, that will last 2 to 5 years!

This book is a COLLECTION / COMPILATION of sewing techniques that were mainly photographed in the 80's & 90's, that were part of the Singer Sewing Library series.

They added a few new photos to show what a NEW Singer machine looks like- think 'cheap white plastic'. The majority of the pics are recycled- the machines used in the pics are mostly their old high-end machines, with slant needles, & wind in place bobbins.

It is overall a VERY nice book.... & yes i will recommend it! However, if you really know your Singer machines, you will see there is very little new in this book.... unless you count that scary cheap plastic Singer in the first few pages!

It is really SAD to see what has happened to one of the great American companies.
