Question

touch and sew
Hello.
I have a miniature child's sewing machine: Singer touch and sew.  Can you tell me where I can find a bobbin for this item  
and how much it may cost?

Thank you.

Answer
Hello Myra,
I have never purchased parts for my machines so I'm not able to give you specific information about where to search.
You may just have to spend a little time on the internet researching I'm afraid.
Sorry I could not be of more help to you.
Regards,
Irene

Expertise

I have been a collector of antique sewing tools and thimbles for over 30 years. I am also a dealer in this field and sell on eBay under the name -- serengeti2. I am NOT, and I repeat NOT an expert on antique or vintage domestic household sewing machines used for everyday home sewing. I can offer help when it comes to TOY or miniature collectible sewing machines ONLY.
