All right, I had no idea that they made her get rid of her scrap bag--this must have been way before my time. When I met Eleanor last year in Paducah I was enthralled with her---she signed two books for me and was just as sweet as she appears on TV.
I don't care if the spokesperson for Janome is Marie Osmond or Fidel Castro I still want one. If she can convince younger mothers that sewing is a great thing then YES YES YES!!! And, I guess they allot so much for advertising and hire whomever they can get for that price. The fact that Janomi can get a celebrity that really does sew is a plus. At least it's not like Sarah Jessica Parker trying to convince us all that she colors her own hair at home.
