Congratulations, she looks to be a winner. They do take a very different bobbin than most Singers, don't they. That was the first thing I did, order bobbins. Toni only had one when she arrived.

I named her Mae after my mamaw that past her love of sewing on to me. I think my first project on her will be one of Mamaw's UFO's that I inherited.

I just won the bid on one that will need lots of work! I haven't received it yet, hopefully this week. I already know it needs the bobbin case and the take up lever. I have located the parts, just hope that the take lever isn't going to be a problem replacing. Wish me luck!
