Hey Mirriam - I see you sold that machine!
 

As it's now located in Hennepin Co Minnesota LOL!!

Is this gonna be like that yard gnome somebody stole and then took around the world?

Eeee gads, talk about plagiarism. It's funny in one way and pathetic in another.

Joe

Omigosh.

That is HILARIOUS. I mean, actually Miriam, did you post it yourself as being out of Hennepin? Or did someone actually steal the virtual yardsale? If the latter, I think it is hilarious!

I hope to see dozens, hundreds of ads for it now. Maybe one in every Springfield in the USA? Mike and Amelia, can the yard sale make it to Australia?

Go forth, QBers, and multiply this stolen yard sale!

If Miriam got her $500, the buyer lost his freight cost. He's asking only for purchase price back. Or, did he pick it up in Indianapolis? Sew funny.

Ron, nice to see you got sensible again with the avatar. ;-)

:pYes, I just got this machine today. Came from Minneapolis area and I got a great deal on it since it was damaged in shipment.:p Only $500.

:D Enablers. Now we will all want one.

Miriam made a Crush and Sow, and the sowing worked! They are sprouting up everywhere! Anyone want to join the Avatar Parade, as led by Ron/Vridar?

Ha ha! That's such a funny idea.

Hahahahaha!!!

My good laugh for the day. Heeheehee

I've been gone - went to Nashville... You have been playing behind my back... BA HA HA HA. THIS IS WAY TOO FUNNY - I laughed so hard the tears ran down my legs - by all means feel free to post it all over the place!!! I keep bumping it up in Indy and people keep sending me spam. Crush and Sow! Now I'll have to change the ad so keep on your toes... Yup it could get packed in a simple USPS box and sent for not too much since it is light weight and has parts missing... This has been so much fun. Someone sent an email and said it was just like the one they learned to sew on. Oh and I picked up another Touch and Sew at GW in Nashville. This one works I think so maybe no party with that one.

I changed the ad - have at it!

If you see it post it on CL somewhere post a link here - I didn't do it - I don't have that much time.......

Snort. :D Indianapolis Special ... that it is indeed.

Since I was born and raised in Hennepin County, MN, I could read that description with my Minnesota accent!

Avatar Parade
 

How come nobody's joining the Crush and Sow Avatar Parade?

Initiated by Ron/Vridar, coined/enabled by Cecilia... C'mon guys! Make that Crush& Sow your avatar for the week! It's National Crush & Sow Avatar Week! Someone want to start a thread? ;-)

I'm in. Is this machine an indy 500 then? I've heard of it :thumbup:

Technological impaired - machinery ok - electronics not so much... When you come over to my shop we will do a retake on it if you bring the video camera...

YouTube video of the "repair" might go viral.

Ok so let's all answer the ads - I did and I got a reply:
Sory Miriam, the unit waz joust suld and thay are cunvertting it to diesel Sowdi Arraybeeah for theyar faymouse sow and skeet compeetition.

May bee next tyme.

That's too funny to be true.

I always pack things up VERY carefully when I ship them and I ship them in the cheapest way possible...

Oh my goodness this is just too funny! You all are a hoot, lol!!!! Love, love, love this group! :)

How did I miss this? Ya'll are a hoot! Well, I am too, just very busy.

Dang, I should have taken pictures when I took a hammer to a plastic machine from, well somewhere. It was a yard sale find with no cord, back then no internet. It was an educational exercise to see how they were made. I even left it in the yard to rust. Maybe the squirrels drug it off.

Say, Miriam - those pics are making me REEEEEEEEEEAAAALLLLLY glad I'm picking mine up from you in person Saturday!

Well, I could set it out on the front porch.....

It's all packed up - what did you say your address was?

I always enjoy reading through the CL section called "The Best of Craigslist". Miriam, I just flagged (nominated?) your listing for the "Best of CL". Lol

Oh Dear - I hope they don't come after me....

Kate it was a blast having you at the shop. I'll save up another old crappy machine for the next time you come. The good ones aren't near as much fun.
