Default He did it AGAIN!!
My husband came home from work on Sunday and guess what came home with him! He stopped by the thrift store and just had to buy her! She is in excellent condition.

That is beautiful. Is it a Centennial (spell)? Do you have others. Where are you, that you can find a machine that nice in a thrift shop? My 201 is the "go to" machine out in my sewing room too--especially for anything quilt related.
