DONATING OLD SEWING MACHINE TO MUSEUM





While I was busy decluttering my house in Ipoh, I found this very old Singer Sewing Machine in the back room.  Initially I thought that it belonged to my paternal grandma and decided to donate it to the Gopeng Museum as my grandma was a resident there.  You can see me at the museum on the day I brought the piece of antique there.
It was actually after I was back in Ipoh that I realised that the sewing machine belonged to my late mother. My grandma died in 1940 during the Japanese occupation of Malaya and the said sewing machine was made at a much later date.
