I have to see the 3/4 sized Free Westinghouse! Is it gold too or decaled pretty? Yes, just when you think you have got this sewing machine stuff figured out - someone throws in a wrench! Geeze, if we are depending on the sites like ISMACS to figure out needle size - then there is the exception thrown in - only a person like you who has 25 + years experience with these machines would know about these things! How interesting!
