I've been looking for a tin lizzie for some time. I have a mid-arm which is OK but it is an older machine and it will only do edge-to-edge with no stitch regulator. So I was just kind of cruising around on the internet the other day and just happened to call a machine company about a frame. Well it turns out they have a used 18" tin lizzie for $2500!! Big problem I don't have all the money but they will let me lay it away and pay it off over time. It will work on my frame, so I will be good to go soon!! Yea. Winter for me is alittle light for money so it might take me til spring but I'm going to work real hard on rounding up some more money and do it!!
|
great....I'd be excited too!
|
Woohoo!
|
Good for you!
|
Congrats!
|
Yeah!!! :)
|
What a deal, good luck.
|
Tell your friends and family members, this Christmas to give you money instead of a gift, so you can put it on Tin Lizzie.
|
Great idea. I'll do that!
|
Good for you! And good for the company for letting you lay it away and pay over time! What a great story!
|
Hooray for you!!!
|
GREAT DEAL! When you get it paid off - you are going to be even more thrilled!!!!!!
|
Lucky you
|
Good luck with your Lizzie, hope you get your funds together really quickly. Winter is a good time for quilting!
|
What a great find. I can't wait to see it.
|
Congratulations! You will have lots of fun with your Lizzie! :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
so happy for U
|
very exciting news !
|
Great going. Someday I will hopefully get something like that.
Time to sell some unused items stored around the house. We all have them. |
Congratulations! I have a Tin Lizzie 18LS and love it!
|
Yay for you!! I say when any of us gets, or is getting something we really love, then it is a great day for all of us!!
|
Lay away is good!! You will have it soon and with no payments to make or interest.
|
Cool deal
|
Congratulations, too excited for you. I'm saving my pennies for a long arm too.
|
Congratulations, I love my lizzie
|
Super WOW!
|
congratulations! Now that you're motivated, the $$ will come more quickly.

Try to find a part time job for a few months to save that money for it. Some years back, when I needed some extra money, I worked a full time job Monday -Friday on days. So I got a job for some evenings and weekends-working at a convenience store. I loved it and it gave me the extra money I needed.
|
I do that in the summer. I work part time Wed and Sat during the summer. Just wiped out by the time winter comes around. I have plenty of "stuff" to sell. I cleaned out the garage today and found some stuff and I'm going to start working on this. I have another house that I need to consolidate to one house (long story) and I know there is tons of stuff in that house.. I'll make it work now that I have a goal.

I have the Tin Lizzie 18SL and I love it! I don't have room for a large frame so I bought mine with the sit down table. But, someday, when I have a home with larger rooms I can buy the large frame and a conversion kit to use mine as a stand up model machine. FYI...the best thread that I've had luck with is the thread sold on Connecting Threads. Of course...this is the word of a newbie! I just got my machine a few months ago so I haven't experimented with a wide variety of thread, but so far...Connecting Thread has the thread that I've been most successful with on this machine!
|
That's terrific! How much fun you're going to have with it! :)
|
Thanks for the thread recommendation. I'm still playing with thread on my mid-arm. Haven't had alot of trouble with what I'm using but I appreciate the input.

Isn't it nice to know that some companies still care about customers and working with them. I hope you get the money together sooner than you think. I have one a love it. My 10 yr gd is going to use it for a quilt she is making.
