Welcome to the board. I have several machines and I really love the older ones best. Yes, you really need to oil your machine if it has been unused for 8 years but I am betting it will be a work horse. I went with my mother to her hand quilting group when I was visiting her. I had sewn clothing, curtains, etc but never a quilt. I had so much fun that day and on the way home we stopped at Hancock’s in Dallas I I got a rotary cutter, cutting mat,a book “Favorite .. “ and I was set to go. That was 18 years ago and I am still hooked. Happy quilting!
