Gloria is a very pretty machine and has a wonderful case. I can't read the date on the receipt. How old is she?
On another hand, I do like my FW machines. They are small, but mine aren't wimpy! I've sewn through 6-8 layers at a time on them. Granted, I don't sew through that many all the time, but once in a while I need to and they just plow through it with no trouble at all. I don't expect my vintage Singers to do that all the time either.
