I am so happy that your baby was there waiting for you. I have a few old old Singers and a Featherweight and they are the best. I just recently figured out how to use the wonderful RUFFLER..... I see from the picture you have one....it is the best when you have a little girl to sew for....try it out. If you don't have the book email me and I will tell you how I use mine.....good luck and enjoy
