Wow! How blessed you are! And such a neighbor!!! I was just thinking of my grandgirls --how I would love to give them such a gift!!
I just last week received a Singer 401a I bid on Ebay (kind of scary for a new adventure for me) looked pretty good in pictures..opened her top and thought I might have made a big Booboo...spent about 15 hours cleaning her so she stitches now (she would not Zig Zag). .still may need more cleaning. She needs a ZZ cover plate before I can really see if she will work..I think when I get her all cleaned up she will be a great machine!
So happy for you!
