Whoo Hoo That's so COOL!

I use this and my other way to deal with odors is a dryer sheet.

Beautiful find.

It is pristine! What a treasure. You must be sew happy! The fact that it is a family heirloom makes it extra-extra special! Good for you!

wow that was luck, your dad could have gotten rid of it without you even knowing ...whew!

Good for you, it looks to be in excellent shape.

what a beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, what a find! Glad that u have it now. If only I can find my grandmother's machine, would make great memories of her using it when i was very little.

Let me pick my jaw up off the floor...what a lovely gift from your mom. You will always be reminded of her every time you sew. Is my face a little green?

Wow, what a beauty! I am still looking for one!

What a thrill for you! You say your mom was not a sewer, but maybe early on she used it for only what she absolutley had to, like repairs. I am excited for you!
