Post a picture when you are done. I would love to see it.~G~
Thanks. I will be sure to. Don't know when it will be though. My mom will want to help do it and she works. I am at home all day at the moment, and could work on it as much as I want. Just have to wait and see. Can't wait to get it looking nice again. It was my Great Grandmothers machine, Possibly handed down to her from her mother. Lots of family history in it.
