Back many, many years ago, when I was learning to sew, the wonderful fabric shop in my hometown had one of those machines, Crystal Lake (Illinois). I haven't been there in many years, thanks for taking me on a trip down memory lane. Perhaps soon I should take a road trip!

Those should be a permanent part of fabric stores today. They are so accurate. Childhood memories!

I remember the Woolworth store and Newberry's had those when I was a kid-centuries ago.

I remember those things.Back in1967 (that will date me) I worked in roses dept. store. Every now in then I worked in the fabric dept. and used one. Wonder why they don't use them anymore?
