Kitsy,
Oh if that were only true. She'd been scrubbed pretty good before we got her. I took the blue side plate off and there was a ton of what looked like smoke residue under there. I washed that off.
Plus on the inside she's been messed with. All the adjustments are out of whack. I've been working on her and she'll sew now, but the needle is still a bit off center, and the cam patterns don't form right.
I've put her back in her case for now and will try to do more later. If not then she'll go to the LSMG for professional assistance.
