She was a Type A, so the machine and cabinet, along with original manual and all the attachments are mint, I am told. I will not get it until mid August, it is several hours drive so will get it when I am planning a trip there for a confrence in mid August. I am very excited. Will name it "Ortha" after the DGM. I've gotten quite a collection going here. My DH started out thinking I was nuts, now he helps me and when a friend of his visited yesterday just before he left DH asked if I was going to show him some of my machines. He followed us around and if I forgot something, he filled in the details. LOL
Cute!! If your drive is just a couple of hours, I suggest going to get that machine this weekend. Two Spools are great machines to piece work. Plus, you and your husband will marvel at the mechanics of this machine, and your husband will be showing it off to all that come through the door.
Congrats and enjoy!
