Anyone in the Ohio area, "along the river, just off of I-70" interested in a machine? I should have pics of it soon, one of my online friends is selling his mother's machine...he's clearing out dad's house... I don't know yet what the machine is....he tells me it's black, heavy, lifts out of a cabinet and is in excellent condition.... I told him I'd help him find a new home for it...he tried to sell it and a couple of guys that were looking the house over took the treadle for $50, but told him this machine wasn't worth anything!! ARGGGGHHHH! He wanted to know if he should just donate it...I asked him to let me help him find it a new home!
On another note...Remember "Mamie"? My New Florence machine in that pretty rose cabinet? The spousal unit was hanging garland last nite, knocked a heavy picture frame off the wall and guess where it landed? HUGE gouge in the wood, thankfully not in the flower decals, but close. ~sigh~ It was hard...those cabinets aren't a dime a dozen, but then neither is my husband....I blew it off and told him not to worry about it....now to decide how to best "fix" it....I don't want to use wood putty as he suggested....will most likely just stain the spot and shellac over it...
