Congratulations. You will love your new little find. It was so nice of him to give it to you. I would name her after his wife. Have fun with her.

You can find out more about your sewing machine on line. I just typed in "Singer Sewing Machines" and was eventually led to a collectors' club/museum. The group is in England but was very helpful in telling me about my machine just from the serial #. But, that is a very nice looking machine. Have fun with it.

I told him, when he felt ready, that I would come over and help him. He had decided to give all her things to the local Fellowship Center and a couple of weeks ago I went over and we started going through her things . When I pulled this machine out of its case I knew what it was right to start with and caught my breath. He asked me if I sewed and when I told him I did, he said, well take it. I offered to pay him but he refused any money.

I havn't cleaned her yet but she does purr like a kitten.

Is it Silver Sneakers classes that you teach? (I am a SS instructor.)
