    Saga of the sewer, what a lovely story and so poetically given. You must be a man of many facets, all of them sparkle.

    This story makes your mind go, If she took this good care of her machine, she must have taken awesome care of her family. Can you not see her cooking what they loved, taking pride in how they looked and letting them know how proud she was of them. I glad her machine found such a good home.

    So touched by your story. I hope you have many years of pleasure from your dear Ruby. Someone surely is smiling down on you while watching your discoveries and pleasures.

    What a lovely thing to write! It made my day! I envision this woman sewing for her family and making things to make her house a home. I know you will cherish your new machine and her memory.

    Lovely tribute to the unknown owner of your Red Eye. I'm sure she is smiling down on the current owners of her machine.
