Jan, you did great! Remember God blesses those who care for those less fortunate. Enjoy that beautiful machine.

Amen Lisa!!!

And to think she did some of your kinda shopping today my love!! So are you back m vacation and how many more machines did you come home with?

Jan I think you did wonderful and to think that the vast majority of the decals are there! You will love the machine but Miz Johnny is right you will chase that rascal all over the table thats why I am doing the 128 I got from you as a hand crank. And you know I get more complements on that machine!!

I did get 2 more machines right after vacation. One is a Riccar in the cabinet and one is a Singer newer model which I don't think I am keeping. Neither have any attachments. The Singer has all plastic gears which turned me off. I am planning on selling it for $20.00 which is what I paid for it. I really like the older machines. I don't care that much for the fancy stitches anyway.

The Riccar is down in my basement. After looking at her and getting the 127 yesterday, I don't plan on keeping her either. I was also thinking of asking $20.00 for her. But she needs some cleaning up first. I don't know anything about them, and have enough to learn.

My DH is getting frustrated with all the machines so I guess I will have to get rid of some. These are the two I chose. With the money I get from them I plan on having my 201 re-wired so it is safe. I love the long throat of her.
