Billy do you have the thread guide and wheel/casters?

Oh and Quiltaddict, I haven't decided if I am going to keep this machine or not, but if I decide to let her go, you can have her for the $25 I paid plus the needles if you still want her.

Our sewing head is just like yours. But, the cabinet is different, it opens the same way but the cabinet is darker and has the curved front and drawers. Yours looks prettier than ours right now but will work on that. If we keep it we will have to paint it because someone spilled something on it that has eaten the finish away. I tried sewing again and she does sew good with me trying to learn the treadle.

what she looks like now
