She came back to me!
 

As a high-school graduation gift in 1970 I asked for a sewing machine and received a Kenmore. Over the years I acquired other machines, MIL's Viking, new Elna, new Pfaff. When I got the Viking about 22 years ago DH suggested I didn't 2 machines so I gave it to a coworker who could use it. Over the years when I ran into the new owner I would tell her if she ever wanted to give it away I'd gladly take it back. She called me recently, said she was going to goodwill it or I could have it. Of course I gladly welcomed it back, it was he best machine I ever owned. Some of the accessories are missing but more importantly I need the manual. Is there a site where I can download a manual?

You should be able to google Kenmore and the make/model and serial number/manual.

Which model? Some of us have Kenmores.

It is model 15814000.

Anyone have a 1521 Kenmore?

You can go to the sears site and they do have some downloads for manuals on older machines.
