:) Thanks!! It's not as "picture perfect" as some of my machines are, but I absolutely love this one for some reason...maybe it's because there's history to it going back to the early 1900's (about 1915 maybe) when Mizzuz Bertha Hazel Flemming Shelton got it (wish I knew from where) I like to think that either her mother or mother in law gave her the machine to sew for her 5 kids... :)

It can not be cured only the symptoms can be tamed and I will die because of it it just depends when God calls me up. But for now I am going to the doctors tomorrow and we are starting the treatments and hopefully by the end of the year I will be under control and I can get back to doing what I love working on sewing machines!!!
Any how I am going to meander through a few pages and see what all you guys found and I will be back tomorrow to let everyone know what is going on.

Okay, I have finally found a 301...
The owner is asking $70.00 and the machine has been listed since the middle of August.
What should I offer.. I was thinking $50.00???
