    They are just the sweetest little things. Mine is packed away right now as I'm cleaning my sewing room since I moved my quilt frame into my husbands room (he said that I could do it!!)

    The woman I talked to had to bring me the bobbin. I ask why it was locked up and she said that people steal them.
    Long story short I left for the auction and sat for 4 hours waiting for the item to come up to bid and I was the high bidder!! :-D Went to pay and a lady looked at me and said you know you got that for a bargain!!I said: Yes, I do know. :-D I posted a picture of her. Thank you all for giving me info on what to look for.
    That new little lady looks like she will be very satisfied in her new home. BE sure that you keep her company and use her a lot. You will just love sewing on a FW. I have two and have only used one, as the other one needs some wiring taken care of before I use it and cause some serious damage. But I have made two queen sized quilts on my first one, and parts of a few other quilts and she just loves to work!!! Congratulations

    I would also suggest you look online for how to care for her. THey require a little more attention than the modern machines we buy today; especially oiling. There are so many good information sites that will tell you everything you need to know.
