September 7, 2019 Colorado Get-Together Part 1
Early morning clouds that remained from last night's rain had cleared by the time we met, giving us a beautiful day with blue skies and a touch of fall in our Colorado air. We met at ten o'clock as usual, with Courtney, James, Dorothy, Carol, Cheryl, Chris, Janey and John.
Courtney brought an oversize thread spool holder that he purchased and a thread guide that he made himself. Courtney said that some larger thread cones have trouble working with spool holder he purchased.
Its funny how things work out. The pictures we took of Courtney's items, taken at the restaurant, unfortunately didn't turn out well. In leaving a little early though, he inadvertently left those things behind, which we rescued. Since we are babysitting them for him until next month, we were able to take replacement pictures of them on our kitchen counter, shown here.

Dorothy brought manuals for the Pfaff 130 machine that she has. As a heavy duty machine, the question came up if it was considered an industrial machine. The domestic version is not, although they make industrial versions of it, as shown in the manuals. One page of the manual shows the various models. The 130-6 is domestic, with others made for various industrial purposes. The industrial versions have a knee lever control for the presser foot.

Dorothy brought several attachments for her Pfaff 130 machine, as well. Some of the items included in the box were 2 of the wire clamps for embroidering and darning, buttonhole cutter with an additional blade, two feed dog covers and a low shank Greist ankle adapter sans feet.
