I ask how much for it and about fainted when he said he would 25.00 for it also. You know I got that one too. Then he said his mom had some kind of sewing table in the garage, and low and behold, it was a featherweight table . I ask how much and when he said 20.00 You know I got that too. Boy what a lucky day we had. I am sooooo excited I can hardly sit still . I just had to tell you all. Oh by the way I have already sewed on both machines and they are perfect.
Congratulations on your fabulous find. maybe you should go buy a lottery ticket now :)

Jealous !!!!! I wish I could find that kind of machines around here for that kind of price. I never see them here for any price.

Enjoy, sassy granny
