Thats a pretty machine. They don't make them that solid anymore. Love the design on the end of it.

We haven't named it yet - we'll have to think of a really good 50's name like Betty Lou or something. My wife suggested Oda Mae - not sure if that's her name or not. I will entertain suggestions if anyone has any ideas. We also are thinking up names for the 3 Pfaffs. One of them really is from Germany, so it may be a Gretchen. I'll have to check the "made in" tags on the other two.

Cindy - I think this machine is capable of dropping the feed dogs, so it is able to do FMQ.

I still don't have any info on this machine. I sure wish someone knew something. I joined Needlebar, but haven't found anything there yet. For now I'll just have to enjoy the color and see how she works on my next project.

Thanks all.

Darren

What about Betty Mae?

I don't know anything about the machine, but it is in amazing condition!
