    I do believe Okiepastor uses the same quote.

    Blessings to you Kathie. God is good.

    Jan, that looks like one of those little Made in Japan clones everyone has been talking about. Lots of different badge names on them, but basically all the same machine. Lots in the $50 range. Just my opinion from observations. I don't have one of those.

It looked good in the picture, but it looked even better in person. It has the case with tray and key, the case is showing its age, but, I don't really care, it is only cosmetic. It also came with a manual, and some bobbins. I found that when I looked up the attachments it uses, I already have some of them from other machines. So, it didn't bother me that it didn't have any attachments with it. This morning, I took the bottom off and there is a new filter in there. The chrome is nice and shiny. It has been pretty well taken care of. I am going to use the pic as my new avatar. It is a 1951 with the blue centenial badge on it. I am a very happy camper. Sorry this was so long. Almost forgot, her name is Phyllis, after my younger sister who passed away 5 years ago.
    Congratulations!! I have been looking at them, but still too pricey for me. When they start coming down I'll reconsider.

    Coming up for air to say hi y'all. More rain will be coming later but there is actually a bit of sunshine popping in and out right now. Hope it doesn't come out too much and make tonight/tomorrow's weather even more severe!

    I have been having a lot of fun sewing on Miss MAM (1926 201-2) and am starting to work on getting what I need to make my Modern Home a working machine. Not much else to do wehn it just keeps on raining!

    I have this same cabinet. I generally don't keep laminated cabinets, but this one opens up to a fabulous size!!

    Take a look at this beauty! I hope this is the right link for it. I really like it and the cabinet, but don't have room for it and it's a little more than I want to spend right now.
