The Singer 15CH1 is a classic lockstitch sewing machine, a long-time favourite with Bangladeshi tailors and home sewers. It's built for straight-stitch work on cotton, silk, wool and synthetic fabrics, including garment making, alterations and small tailoring jobs. It can be run by hand, by foot treadle or with an add-on electric motor, so it works with or without electricity.
