I love estate sales. Last year my husband and I decided to stop at one when we were on the way out of town for our anniversary weekend. There wasn't much there, but in a bedroom at the top of the stairs was a wonderful oak sewing machine cabinet. No machine, just the cabinet; I'd been asking him for a cabinet for mine and had been looking at those at Hancock and Joann's. I got it for $50.00 and had to delay my trip a few hours so I could get it out. After I got it home I found that it had an insert for a free arm with it that perfectly fit my Viking and that the shelf the machine sits on is operated by an electric switch that raises and lowers it. :lol: :lol: The cheapest cabinet I'd seen that I would have considered bringing home was $350.00 on sale and wasn't even half as nice as this old one I got. Sometimes you get a great deal at estate sales.
