Do you still have this model? I'd be very interested in it. I inherited my mom's machine and I am a beginner. After a few uses the bobbin rewind broke a spring that apparently no one has. So, I'm hoping you still have this machine and would like to sell it. They tell me this model was only sold a few years so the parts are obsolete. Please feel free to call my cell 1-772-473-6383. I too am in Florida - east coast.
