Default Blue singer

Yesterday at the thrift store,I played with a singer that was a lovely shade of blue...had never see one...it was in a table with nice wood....it worked and. Had a box of attachments....$35 ...sure was tempted, but ihaveabsolutely not an inch of space to put it....was this a treasure that I missed or just a novelty to me?

I can never walk away from one that is unique to me .......... how did you do that? I understand the space issue as I'm sharing your boat with you ...........

It was a clone, likely, and not a Singer. Not a rare machine by any means, but a novelty.

I would have brought it home with me. I love blue machines.

I've been outbid on 4 blue clones and you turned one down ..... oh the shame of it. Just teasing. I'm out of space myself, but I would have brought it home anyway.

Haha, Joe, too bad you don't live closer. I've had my blue clone on CL for a while now and it's not sold:<

Well darn, I'll bet it's a pretty one too. The problem is shipping from Outer Space would be astronomical.
