   I just bought the Singer CG-590. It looks so much like the machine you are using in the tutorials but has all built in stitches and is grey. Please have a look.

   I’m hoping you can help me. I have recently been given an antique Singer. I learned how to sew back in the early 50s on my mom’s treadle operated Singer, which absolutely fascinated me. This is an electric one with a foot pedal, but otherwise resembles that old workhorse in many ways. I opened it up to check it out and clean it. and it seems to be in remarkably good shape, aside from looking like it hasn’t been cleaned and lubed any time recently. I’m a life long sewer, and I’ve driven everything from the old treadle to a high-end Bernina, and I’ve got an ear for the difference in how a well-cleaned and oiled machine sounds as opposed to a dirty, under-lubed one. I was shocked to see how neglected this lovely old piece of machinery had been. I have a youngster in my household currently who is in the first stages of learning to sew, and I am hoping to show her how to operate this old beauty. I have two problems that maybe you can help me with. First, it came with only one foot, a zipper foot which is a single toe with a notch on each side. The problem I have with this is the tendency of beginners to be hasty and overly forceful. Without a standard foot where the needle and thread pass between two ‘toes’ to protect it, there will be a lot of bent needles, with corresponding damage to various other parts of the machine, while this youngster learns a more subtle touch and minimal force. The second problem is that I don’t know where to find parts and accessories that will fit the machine, or even how to tell what year and model it is. What would you recommend I do?

   Hi, I am looking for a sewing machine just like the one in your video “Sew a Buttonhole in 4 Steps on your Singer Sewing Machine”. What is the model number?
