Happy Birthday. Congratulations on your find. I also found my FW at a thrift store, not even looking for one that day.
I got another one yesterday I bought from a friend, I have not opened the package yet. the first one has been serviced and the plug replaced, as it was missing when I bought it. I will probably sell the first one and keep this one. |
You have just experienced my dream come true! The whole scenario, the thrift shop, the manual, the attachments, the beautiful featherweight that works.... And my birthday is in a couple of weeks! lol.... Happy Birthday, by the way!

Congratulations and Happy Birthday! You are one lucky lady. I never find anything exciting in a thrift store or yard sale. Enjoy!!
|
A neat machine!

Wonderful find. Your husband is a keeper.

I'm happy it has a good home and someone who really appreciates it.

I cleaned it; oiled it; and it runs like a champ. Case is in need of some repair, but there are lots of attachments with it and the original manual. Monday was my birthday so this is my present to myself. :lol: :lol:

DH is a good shopper. Looks like a centennial. There is a blue ring on the Singer medallion?
