Default Oh, be still my heart........

<Teaser post..............>

Hubby and I went to an estate sale about 3 months ago because they had advertised an antique sewing machine.

We got there and found out they were asking $300 for it.

Waaaaay out of my price range.

But they were taking bids.

With shaking hand, I wrote out a bid and stuck in the "The Bid Box".

Time went by, and more time went by without any word so I figured "Dummy, you offered too little and you will probably NEVER see another one like that one again."

Oh man, it was c-o-m-p-l-e-t-e...... needles, attachments, instruction manual even the original purchase receipt.

So.......... without further ado.......... they called me today........ They accepted my bid!

(twirling around and floating on cloud nine both at the same time)

I'll start another thread and post pictures when I get it home. It won't be here until Friday.

Here's a hint: It's black. (ha! ha!)
