Good for you, I hope you love it! :) Happy shopping!

Cool, cool, cool!! You scored a great one! Can't wait to see what you are making with it!

Very cool!!!

Wow!. I'd be excited too kiddo. That is so way cool... CONGRATS on the find

Fabulous find!!! Awesome price!!! Yep I don't think you will be sleeping anytime soon :)

Wow -- good for you!!

Now quit reading and get sewing :lol:

makes you wonder who would be silly enough to let it go. especially at that price. well, it found a good home where it will be well- loved. there should be a sewing machine shelter for unwanted sewing machines where they can be adopted and taken to a loving home.

that's the sad part. it was his wife's (she actually had another one that he already sold). it was too awkward to ask, but i'm assuming she has passed on as it looked like he lives in the back room of one of the children's homes.

he told me as i was leaving that he has boxes and boxes of fabric to go through, if i know of anyone that needs/wants it. said 'she' was a quilter. i think i'm going to call him and offer to help him sort through it, take pictures, price it and get it out on craigslist. i have some time next week while dd is in school.

i'm sure she's looking down from heaven and knows i'll enjoy it (her name was Beverly - on the warranty registration card).

very nice ,but also sad....I'm sure he would love your help....would be nice of you....

Wow what a find. Congrats on it.

that would be a very kind thing to do.
i think ending up living in your kid's back room is worse in some ways than losing your spouse. in addition to appreciating the help, he will also appreciate the company and the chance to talk about his wife.

CONGRATS!! What format does it use?

super cool! have fun!!

next on the wish list is the PED-basic! waiting to see if prices go down before Christmas!

Great treasure and such a sad story. He would probably welcome your help.
