I did not find anything. I am a sewing machine professional and it look to
be one of the models I suggested. If you look on the machine somewhere there
will be a model number and it will likely be one of the 2 I mentioned.

It is very similar to this one of Kates

http://www.diceyhome.free-online.co.uk/KatePages/Resources/machinegallery/viscount.jpg

All I can tell about this one is that it was made in Taiwan. Obviously
the Viscount 2000 and Dressmaker labels are just badges added on to a
generic product.
