she's sewing straight lines on paper.
she graduated to thread tonight
dg - it did not come with any of the accessories. i found it on the canadian version of craig's list for $75. i took it to an enthusiast and got it mostly tuned up - brushings changed and the throat plate unstuck and stuff like that.
it needed some running and some little tweaks to get moving, but i think we're almost there.
i researched the accessory kits on ebay. it looks like i can buy a kit for about $100. cams, buttonholer and embroidery attachments are also more or less available. i'll keep my eyes peeled
thanks for your kind words. she's a pretty good one. i'm going to keep her [the kid and the machine!]
