    I was at our local Salvation Army today dropping off bags of clothing (cleaning out closets :)) when I saw this beauty sitting all by himself. It is a White Rotary sewing machine and seems to be in very good condition. The cabinet top needs a bit of work, a bit of sanding and oiling will help, but it also is very nice. I couldn't pass it up for $35.00. Went home and asked DH to come back to town with me. Brownie is now in the shop for some TLC and to make sure the electrical is all okay before I use it. I am sooooo lucky to have found him. The lady that was at the counter said there is another woman who comes in regularly for old machines and would have taken this one at the drop of a hat. I'm doing a happy dance.
