Default all these machines.......and no fabric in sight....
Was passing by a shop about 20mins from home and saw all these machines decorating the front and back windows. No fabric or quilts or notions........it was a clothes shop!

Yes, do you suppose they would let someone replace all those authentic hand cranks with the reproduction ones. Wouldn't that be a great source so we can get a quality crank instead of the imports.

There is a clothing store in Seattle, Washington, that also has sewing machines displayed. Awesome!

They do have a Sale sign on the display, but does that mean any of the machines are for sale, or just their clothing. Lots of old beauties there.

I wonder what they will do with them when the gimmick has worn off or the the end of the season, which ever comes first.
