It is on year older than my mom in theory, based on the JC serial. I just love how it looks. Now to keep the toddler away from it. :-)
Indysheart, you are so cute!

And you must be sooo young. I was in the third grade when your machine was made.[ I'm so sorry that you had a bad experience in your home economics class. I was a home ec. teacher in the "stone age." ('63-'64)teeheehee. Home Ec. Ed has changed so much in the last decade or so. In fact, it is now called Human Resources. Of course, that's no excuse for someone ruining your early experiences in sewing. So start fresh and let the people on this board guide you. There is so much you can find online, you will be amazed. Lots of tutorials, patterns, etc. ] Good luck with your new machine.
