Singer Corporation is an American manufacturer of sewing machines. Since 1851, the name SINGER has been synonymous with sewing.

The spirit of practical design and creative innovation that characterized the company at its beginning continues today as they develop products for every level of sewing. SINGER has celebrated many firsts, including the world's first zig-zag machine, the first electronic machines, the first sewing assistant app for mobile devices, and much more. From fashions to home décor, embroidery, quilting and more, SINGER is dedicated to helping people express themselves through the craft of sewing.
