I'm envious!!

Sounds like the machine and top were waiting for you to come.
So glad you found them. Enjoy them.

(Billy does have some good tutorials on how to clean up these vintage machines.)

Fantastic finds...are you going to quilt the top (I would!)?

Yes I am going to quilt the top. There is one block with two little bitty holes and one seam that is coming apart. I can fix the seam. Not sure about the holes. Should I mend them, or just leave them alone?

I don't think they knew what they had, becuase they had another older machine that was nothing to look at (and the motor was seized up) sitting out for display. This one was all closed up, and pushed back in the corner of the room.

Wonderful top. That beats my $4.00 top I found last week. I've already posted pictures of it earlier. I don't think mine is in as good a condition as yours. Do you know what the pattern is? I'm sure I've seen it before.
