Period

Canada
The sewing machine was purchased second-hand in Trois-Rivières, by the donor’s mother Cecile Dugré de Biens. Mrs. de Biens purchased the machine in the 1940s, definitely before 1950. She used it until 1980s. Mrs. De Biens passed away in 1989. She preferred to purchase a high quality sewing machine second-hand rather than spent less on a machine that was not as robust. Mrs. de Biens was from a relatively wealthy family; she was educated at the Ursulines convent in Trois-Rivières (founded in 1697). She learnt embroidery, lace-making, and was very skilled at sewing. Mrs. de Biens used the machine to make clothes for her 5 children and 11 grand-children. Cecile was the first person in Trois-Rivières to own and drive a car. The sewing machine was either sold or repaired at one point by Marcel Hamel (now Marcel Hamel et Fils, formally incorporated in 1969). La machine à coudre a été achetée d'occasion à Trois-Rivières, par la mère de la donatrice, Cécile Dugré de Biens. Mme de Biens a acheté la machine dans les années 1940, certainement avant 1950. Elle l'a utilisée jusque dans les années 1980. Mme de Biens est décédée en 1989. Elle préférait acheter d'occasion une machine à coudre de grande qualité plutôt que de dépenser moins pour une machine moins robuste. Mme de Biens était issue d'une famille relativement aisée ; elle a fait ses études au couvent des Ursulines de Trois-Rivières (fondé en 1697). Elle apprend la broderie, la dentelle et est très douée pour la couture. Mme de Biens utilise la machine pour confectionner les vêtements de ses 5 enfants et de ses 11 petits-enfants. Cécile est la première personne de Trois-Rivières à posséder et à conduire une voiture. La machine à coudre a été vendue ou réparée à un moment donné par Marcel Hamel (aujourd'hui Marcel Hamel et Fils, officiellement constitué en société en 1969).
