Hi! Does anyone happen to have a Brother 1681 machine? I am looking at one for a reasonable price but I don't have any Brothers (or brothers~~oldest of six girls!).

I sold one of Featherweights today, the centennial one. Got my asking price and she went home with a very nice lady. I was needing to thin the herd a bit anyhow. She wanted to know if the tan FW was for sale...NOOOO!
