Woo Hoo! His case is missing several clamps, so really is useless, and there are no extra cams, but I am still happy about my deal! I also got a Kenmore model 95 that is mint green and cream. It came with all the cams, a buttonhole foot, zipper foot, a ruffler and a couple other feet I haven't figured out yet! She is in a cabinet and belonged to the older lady's mom. She only cost $20 which I think is such a steal. I opened her up to clean her and one little fluff came out! When my daughter came home, I yelled "Happy Birthday!" and pointed to her. Heather gasped, dropped her backpack and ran over to the Kenmore that she has named "Angel". She is very happy! DH, on the other hand, said, "You bought ANOTHER one?!?" Poor baby! Well, yeah. I am glad I hid the 500a!

Sewing machines are a teensy bit harder to hide than a new batch of fat quarters! LOL!

Have fun with the new old gals - they're great fun and that 500 is the epitome of "retro" cool, isn't it? :)

LOL, not if the stash is already big enough to hide it in!

It is on a tub of stash under my sewing table! You have to get on your hands and knees to see under there. I think I have to wait a couple of months before I let the cat out of the bag.

Wow, what great finds. How could you pass them up. I would love to see pics if you can.
