Free: Brother sewing machine (Swarkestone DE73) Gifted Please read before asking Only a few years old but not used much during that time as it is very finicky! Have had to get it serviced twice over last few years due to it not liking being knocked, breathed on, looked at. It currently just about manages a very slow speed straight stitch, which is fine if that’s all you need it for. So yes, it does work, but would need someone with either more patience or skills than me to get it doing more types of stitches. Comes with one bobbin, one needle, foot pedal. No idea where the manual is but I’m pretty sure you can download these off the website. No box or case. Collection only Barrow on Trent DE73.
