I found one of those 201's on CL for $30. Drove an hour to get it. It only had a zipper foot. All I wanted was the beautiful queen anne cabinet anyway. But I got it home and tried it out and fell in love. A couple weeks later the man I got it from called and said he found some bobbins, would I want them. He brought them to the place I work. Then months later I got a note at work. He had lost my phone number so he took a note for me to where I work one hour a week. They misplaced the note for a month. When I got the note I called him. He said he found a couple feet, would I like them. Sure, so we drove up there and he had a big box of stuff. It has a buttonholer, all kinds of feet, zigzagger, blind hemmer, beautiful manual and on and on. It was his wife's mother's sewing machine. She hated to part with it but they were moving to assisted living.
