Bet you can't get the smile off your face. Congrats!!! you got a GREAT deal. I have a white/green celery/cream 221 and 3 black 221's...they are for my adult grand daughters...Love those machines, so cute and functional for piecing and sewing. I can never find a 222 that is in my budget zone. Enjoy.
