Pretty machine, Charlee. I haven't been online much since breaking my arm but it's good to see your post. I hope you are doing better.

nanna-up-north! How did you break your arm?? Are you ok now?
I am doing better as long as I remember to take the pills I'm supposed to take now...hard for me, I not only hate taking pills, but I've never had to take pills before! I know that sounds lame, and I do try to remember...
Cathy...I have a place for you ANYTIME!! C'mon!!

I am quite jealous. Is that a beast like my Pfaff 130?

I think everyone that can appreciate art as well as sewing machines has to be at least a little envious. The condition is absolutely fantastic! The detail everywhere on it, even the legs is impressive to say the least. Love it! ~G~

So frustrating! A dear friend found this for me and now that it is cleaned up, it is SO quiet. All except for the cursing that happens when I try to sew!!

. I hate taking pills also. Having both the pill containers on the kitchen counter reminds me that I have to take my pills also. No little kiddies around here so there is no danger. Love your new Pfaff by the way. Very nice present.
