This weekend I went shopping to the thrift stores and foud a old Singer sewing machine...was soooo happy as I have been looking for one for a while. Only paid $69.00 for it. It is one that was in a cabnet so I will have to make one for it. I don't know how old it is but it has a motor on the back of it and that funky metal light that hangs on the back. It is in very good conditon and sews really nice. Does anyone know how old this machine is? Also on my shopping trip I purchased 8 quilting books and found some fabric of one to 3 yard pieces.
