Absolutely! Once I got her cleaned up, oiled and greased---(and bobbin loose from rust)-she purrs......such a nice even straight stitch. I just love these machines.....Originally Posted by Unique Creations
Yes, Pearl looks good as new with her new paint job, but I have a question, does she work?

We have a hen I named "Pitiful Pearl" because she has what looks to be a ruptured crop and it looks somewhat like a large goiter. She was always kind of shunned by the other hens and so was a loner. Funny thing is, she is now about five years old, still lays an egg about three times a week, ( she lays green eggs, so we know they are hers), and the rest of that original flock are all gone but one other.

I agree with Murphy and you did an awesome job making her respectable.

I have been working on Pearly or a week now, using many of the ideas from the board. With a special "thank you" to Billy and all his advice----here is Pearly------I just want her time with me to be a good one.
