How do I find out which type of sewing machine will fit in my used sewing cabinet?

By admin | March 2, 2009

Monica B asked:


I recently found a great deal on an older (1960’s) sewing cabinet at a thrift store (solid wood in excellent shape with drawers!). It didn’t come with a machine, but appeared to be able to accept a most machines. So I got it and brought it home, hoping to take the machine I have in an older cabinet out. However, I found that the older machine (1950’s?) will not fit in my new cabinet. (It mounted differently and was too short.) I plan to sell my old machine and cabinet at a yard sale, and want to find out what kind of machine I need to look for to work with my new cabinet. Instead of having a place for a standard rectangular base, it has more like an “L”. The machines I have seen in the stores recently don’t match this. I love the cabinet and want to find the correct machine to fit it so I can use it for my hobby sewing. Any help you would give me on this would be great. Thanks!

      That is a toughie, I know from experience!! 3 cabinets!! Like you I love the cabinet but could not made it work. Finally, 3yrs ago I got a new Janome - which now all of them are the portable. I took a shelf out of my computer printer stand and put it on top of the hole, of course the top of the cabinet wouldn’t shut - so I mounted velcro on the top and shelf to keep from slipping and so I can take it off the shut the cabinet - which in the winter I sew all the time. Don”t give up if you love the cabinet you will find a way - I did. Good Luck!
