My dil came to day and cleaned the bedroom where my daughter moved out and will be my sewing room. My machine kept acting up and I just left it for a while. She went to town to rent a steam cleaner and came back and told me she had talked toher dad. He dad's mother died 17 years ago and left my dil a Singer machine in a cabinet, not sure what model, but she sewed on it two days before she died. My dil went and asked her dad if she could give it to me and he said it was hers, so I get it. They are going to get it out of storage this weekend and I get it. I am so excited. Mine works well sometimes and some days like today it acts up. Maybe it is the operator. lol
