    I had to pleasure of seeing Steve's machine in person Wed. night. Sweet machine! And so quiet. I wanted to steal it.
    Master Stephan is so very talented. The re-enactment gear he makes is awesome.

    Steve, thanks for the tour,
    Cathy

    Steve,

    You said 'crazy'.I resemble that remark.

    I love these old letters. I have some letters on Wheeler Wilson letterhead from a travelling salesman to his wife from back in the late 1800s. Haven't decided if i want to sell them or not. I may have them matted and framed.

    Here are pictures of my early Christmas presents. The first one is a sweet Wilcox - Gibbs, chain stitch machine, with the cutest butterfly foot pedal, and tiny butterfly feet. She was $65 at a local gift store, I will have to wait until I get brave enough to try her (after the holidays I will have time).

    My next one is a singer Sphinx, G347 from 1913-1915. I love her, she needs lots of oiling, and degreasing. Hubby's next project. Her name is Adeline.
