Louise is a sister to Clara! That's my machine - She originally was grandma's who made and sold lady's corsets farm to farm back then. I learned to sew on her and the only reason I replaced her was to get a zigzag stitch. Now I have a Pfaff 1222 workhorse (just fixed up) and a Janome 4800. You will love her - the stiches are perfect and she just hums.
