Good job!! That's a darn nice machine. It would have been a shame if it went to a landfill.

I'm not into old machines, but that certainly is a great job on avoiding the landfill!

That's great that a 10 year old gets to benefit! Many happy years of sewing/piecing with that machine!

DS and I recently went to drop off our refuse and he found a landscape framed picture of New York City with the Twin Towers on the ledge. Someone needed to get rid of it, but couldn't throw it away. Although DS initially was questioning why I was driving to the chosen refuse container, he didn't question me anymore once he saw and confiscated that beautiful picture!
