Hi there @indigotiger good to hear from you, please keep us informed as to what you're busy with, we're I'm a nosey-parker 

And their fabrics used to turn up in old feed sacks!

I've had a couple of deliveries from them in these, I just chuckled 

Just as well it's many many miles away 

Although that never stops me I shop online as there's nowt near me anyway 

I agree with @Missie that it's easier to sort out your sleeve fit when it does resemble a sleeve and you can slip it on your arm.

For the record I hate fitting sleeves, they're never straightforward 

I've just watched this documentary and found it very moving, very sad how the factory came to be shut down. I had no idea of the enormity of influence Singer had and the sales around the world  I'm particularly impressed that the reconditioned vintage machines end up in Africa helping women set up their own wee business and are able to use their creativity productively.

I also loved the parts where they showed footage of the gala days the factory held, it reminded me of the gala's that our steelworks held when I was a kid in the 70s
