You have a great neighbor! Congrats on your featherweight. This way she knows her machine is going to a good home too.

That is so thoughtful of your neighbour to pass it on to you! We can get very attached to our machines, especially if it is the only one or if it has been with us for a very long time. It probably meant a lot to her to pass it on to a friend that she knew would appreciate it Enjoy your new toy

How wonderful!!!
You must be a sweet lady and a good friend to this neighbor...I agree...making her a little something special would be very nice. Maybe a little treat to eat, too...
I have had a wonderful neighbor like this for the last 37 years. They just moved out of the house for a condo, due to all the stairs....miss them terribly.

What a heart warming story. I am sure she will be thrilled with whatever you make for her.

God does answer our prayers. Often when least expecting it. I bet that a quilt from you made with this machine will be an answer to her prayers too. Life is Good!
