TY KAty, I was surprised that Dh even pointed her out to me and then insisted that she be bought and paid for her. He was just complaining last week I had to get rid of some of this sewing "crap" (as he calls it) and then turns around to buy me more. We were out to a different thrift store yesterday and he says Hey look at that machine over there. I said Nope not what I like, it was a 99 in a cabinet and not for me, I like portable and have to have something special to them.

Since the ones in cabinets are a bit hard to transport when teaching, I just have to restrain myself and look for portables like you just found. Great find!!!!
