Because I saw a machine like this on Sunday at an estate sale at my cousin's house in Ft Worth, and it was also missing its throat plate! That machine was priced at, I think, $50 but everything was half off on Sunday, the last day of the sale. I almost bought it only because it belonged to my cousin Carole, who was like my sister, but I have 4 machines already and no place to put another, even a portable. Carole made one beautiful quilt on this machine and pieced at least one more before she became ill, a top which the kids are holding for me, along with some of her fabric.
