I belong to a senior community and the other day someone left a Baby Lock embroidery machine in the craft room. Two others took it home to work on but brought it back as something they would not use. I spotted it and took it home. It was missing some essential parts but all were inexpensive. Power cord, adapter for computer for floppy discs, bobbin cover. Found a wonderful site to get all these parts and am working on getting machine going. The only thing I haven't gotten so far is the bobbin cover and I am ready to go. I am so excited. I have always wanted a machine but didn't want to spend the money. Now I have one with less than $50.00 spent on parts. :- YEAH!!!!!
