Default Can't beat the old reliable machines

In the past 15 years or so, I have worn out 2 newer Pfaff machines, a 2030 and a 2140. I was in the middle of making a quilt for my youngest son's college graduation and the motherboard on the 2140 went caput. Took them both in and it is hopeless. What do I do? I get out the 1948 Singer 201 that was given to me a few months ago. Played with it, got it oiled, greased, adjusted and it sews perfect. Took me a few more adjustments to get it to free-motion correctly. Love the extra space under the arm. Finished the quilt, presented it to him this afternoon and he loves it. That old gal is a keeper.
