Missed a Free Supernova
 
Sad but true. Sunday night a free Necchi SuperNova appeared on craigslist in the next county, about an hour away. The SuperNova is #1 on my wish list, I've been searching for a local one at a reasonable price. Monday I had two local Veteran's Day ceremonies to attend. My wife is in local government, and I'm a Coast Guard vet, so I couldn't skip. By evening the listing was down, bummer.

awwww That hurts. Better luck on the next one.

Thanks!
I ended up doing some sewing on another recent acquisition today anyway.
I hope that Necchi is in good hands.

When one door is closed, God opens another. So stay alert as a SuperNova in better condition than the one you missed could be in your future.

Thank you Betty, I appreciate the sentiment.

Are the Necchi BU and Mira machines good ones?

Too bad you aren't looking for a SuperMatic. I have one of the green machines I would love to give to a new home. It has been in storage for years which is such a waste.
