Miriam....does your Cinderella have a motor boss? Also, is the motor generic or does it need to be a specific motor just for the Cinderella? Thanks.

This is my cute little 15 clone that I found at a local thrift shop. I was dropping off some bags of donations and when I was bent down I came "eye to eye" with a little blue and white sewing machine case. It hadn't been priced yet so I went back a few days later and bought it for $45.00. It sews so-o-o smoothly. I love it!!

I was vacationing in Roswell GA last week. Either Value Village or the thrift store down the road with the fancy name, Paris?, had a very old sewing for sale. I had no transportation, nor specialized knowledge, so I passed it by. Might be worth a look?

I want a red machine, too, but so far haven't found one although there is a red machine on eBay but the price is too high.

I've bid on several blue ones. Each a different brand name. Got outbid every time. I don't know why I want a colored one, the black ones I already have sew just fine, but I do.
