I am happy for you. I always like it when I get a find like that.

So we go look (I can hardly contain myself at this point). She takes me to this cute little solid wood cabinet, flips it open, lifts out the machine and says. "Here it is, I think I paid $30.00 for it" :shock: So....After I pick myself up off the floor, I told her I'd be HAPPY to take her....if she was sure. So she hollers at her DH that she is selling me the machine, did he remember what they paid for it...He hollers back "Yeah, I think $15.00" OMGosh...at this point I am hyperventilating.... :shock:....so I say..."Again, I'll take her if you are SURE"...So she says, "Oh yeah, and it will sew too and the light works!"...then she asks me if I'm SURE I want her!!....

Of course, they loaded her in my truck and I played all afternoon...This is my 1st venture into the older machines so I have lots to learn evidently. I have a couple of questions to figure out. But here she is!!!! Bare with me while I post several pics...
