Super Duper find

My favorite part was all the trims, scissors, elastic, Velcro, button, gadgets, etc. The original owner's name was in a box, "Nora". By the looks of a little note I found in there, and some other things, she probably passed away about ten years ago and her family donated it recently. I love sewing at it because everything is so handy and I can close it all up easily when I need to. I was so happy to find it and I suspect Nora would be happy to know it's in the hands of a very appreciative quilter.

Beautiful cabinet

Nice purchase - I hesitated buying a similar one as the asking price was $1,000.00...

How neat. Don't think they made lots of those. You are lucky to find it so cheap.
