She is also on Instagram and has videos there. Learn about your treasure and how to care for it. Enjoy it for another 100 years!
thank you for the advice. I only have one bobbin so will need to know exactly which ones fit!! Love that we now have youtube and ways to watch and learn to take care of our machines
