Got this baby in the case for $3 this morning at a yard sale! Makes a beautiful straight stitch! I noticed a tag on the bottom, but I'm not completely sure what it all means. It says "22 (word I can't read) can't be adjusted".....is that referring to the cams? Or the speciality stitches? Thoughts?

Anyway she is beautiful, her case is great and for $3 how could I walk away!

It may mean Straight Stitch only Zig Zag can't be adjusted.

Lori - good thought with the zig zag....I thought that was 22, but I guess ZZ would make more sense. I wonder why the ZZ wouldn't be able to be adjusted. I rarely use ZZ, so that isn't a big deal to me. I'm just thrilled that the straight stitch works!!!!

Thanks everyone! I haven't had a chance yet to try out the zig zag and see if it is a problem, maybe tomorrow. Today we are helping a friend move.

Have a great Sunday everyone!
