We had to go to Tyler about 40 miles from us,and when we got there he told us that he had his moms machine also if we were interested. pulled it out of a case and bless pete it was a black 301 long deck . 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
