In 1850
Isaac Merritt Singer designed and perfected the first practical sewing
machine in a small Boston, Massachusetts machine shop. It took only 11
days and $40 in borrowed capital for him to create the sturdy lock
stitch machine that would revolutionize sewing across the globe. |

On August
12, 2001, Singer celebrated the 150th anniversary of Isaac Singer's
patent on the first practical sewing machine, which marked the
official beginning of Singer as a company. But while their 150th
anniversary celebration gives them a chance to reflect, they are
looking forward, envisioning how their next century and a half will be
as exciting, successful and rewarding as the last. Singer is using the
latest innovations and technology to continue to teach the world to
sew. |
