I forgot the kids were home this afternoon and they heard me talking to my 201....I told them if they rolled thier eyes like that they might get stuck...what is it about these machines that makes us love them so? Laura[/QUOTE]

shrug. my family is thinking intervention... my oldest GD, Miss G counted machines and quit at 100... She doesn't know about the rest... They were intrigued by the Vindex Special and Two Spools but they LOVE LOVE LOVE that hand crank on the old Singer 99. That hand crank kept the 5 year old VERY busy. Wilbur discovered the tiny little screw drivers... he just laughed - he thought they were very funny - very short very fat little screwdrivers.
