Lucky, lucky, lucky you!! Take a meander through the vintage Machine Enthusiasts thread. Somewhere in there will be instructions on how to take it apart and clean it. They're lots of fun to wrk on, and your son might enjoy helping. Enjoy your new baby, you're going to love her. What will you name her?

Grandma Bonnie, we're almost twins, I was also born in 1936.

Congratulations and enjoy your Featherweight!!

...A dream come true. Good job hubby!

congrats to dad on the awesome find!!!

Kudos on the wonderful find!! Hope you have many happy sewing moments with her!

like how you posted the picture from your "sleepy state of mind." LOL

Did you scream and jump up and down on the bed???? :) I sure would have! Can you believe someone just there her away not having a clue what she was??? Congratulations!

That is just awesome! What a great find for you!

I'm not so mechanically inclined as to take her apart but we will see. I think she's going to be Ethel...been watching I love Lucy reruns and that was the first name that popped into my head.
