That's kind of funny. People who don't sew...have no clue. One time I saw an ad on our local Craigslist...Black Singer sewing machine in suitcase...Well duh, a FW. Drove about 25 minutes to see the machine. It was a Singer 301 ?? They only wanted $50 for it, but I didn't get it because I didn't know anything about them or any vintage machines at the time. My quilting friends thought I was crazy fro not grabbing it, now I wish I had. I don't think Elna makes a long arm, but I could be wrong.
