BTW, the serial number on a Japanese machine is of no use as there are no records to search.
Thanks so much. I really appreciate any suggestions I can get. This is a huge help. I tried uploading a photo on my iPad but it wouldn’t let me. I am pretty sure it’s just a straight stitch and front loading. The machine is currently at my significant others house.
