Congratulations Randa. Yes, that is a 15-91! You will love her when you start using her! They are great machines!

I'd take that cloth around the neck off. I bet she is scratched from those pins -- that is too bad.

Yup there were a few scratches...nothing really deep, but easy to see. There was every kind of pin you can imagine, too. LOL! But the cord is bad...I used it to be sure the machine runs, but I wouldn't want to do any sewing with it until it's replaced. Is this something I can just redo myself...heavy electrical cord and just rewire myself? There are a couple screws in the part that goes into the machine, so I think it should be fairly easy to do.
