He came home today from the same swap meet and brought home a singer treadle base. Says he is going to make it into a table so my featherweight has a place to sit. What a sweety!

    LUCKY YOU MINE WOULD NEVER NEVER DO THAT FOR ME HE SAID I ALREADY HAVE ENOUGHT MACHINE'S i HAVE 6 OR 7 LOST COUNT. LOL
