Singer Sewhandy Model 20, Safari Brown - March 2026 Faire
This original, brown (we're calling it Safari Brown) Sewhandy is the perfect machine for the little quilter!
Completely serviced, cleaned and tested by the Featherweight Shop, this Sewhandy is so vibrant. With original paint, this one is in nice condition, and we have given it a grade 7+; the badge and decals are clear and bright, and there is some minor cosmetic/paint wear.
Black and Brown (Warm Taupe) were the most common colors for the Sewhandys here, in the USA in the 1950s, but this Safari Brown color was sold primarily in France in the 1950s.
This will be an excellent piece for the experienced sewing machine collector or a young collector just getting their start. (Christian first learned to sew on a Sewhandy at age 4.) It will be a treasured machine for anyone to pass on to future generations.
Ready to sew right out of the box: Oiled, serviced, and tested. A chain-stitch sample is included for your assurance of it being ready to sew. The machine has been serviced, and the tension has been calibrated, so you won’t have to worry about tension when you sit down to sew for the first time.
A Singer model 20 is the perfect machine for a child to learn on with its numbered threading system, finger guard, and reliable metal mechanics. The Sew handy is a chain-stitch machine, so it does not use a bobbin or bobbin case, making it even easier to use. The needle finger guard makes sewing with small hands near the needle much safer, and the needle can't be removed by hand like most household machines - it must be changed with a screwdriver, thus assuring adult supervision.
Included with Machine:
