georgeous machine! (oops! I think I forgot how to spell) I would not have passed up the machine either - even though I have numerous vintage machines already and absolutely do not need any more. Great find - have fun with it

At last!! Someone posted a picture of a bobbin like the one that was in my grandmother's machine. I was beginning to think my memory was playing tricks on me!! Gorgeous machine, by the way.

The pictures do not do it justice. the tri-colored leaves look exactly like the three colors of black hills gold...
