    I was taking my DD to her Bf's house in the county when I drove by a yard sale at 65mph and and all I could see was a sewing machine and there was junk all over the place but at 65mph that is all I couldn't see any of the junk. So on my way back I stopped in the hopes that there would be other sewing stuff but no. I asked the gentleman what he wanted for the machine even tho there was not a cord. I looked it over and all the parts move and it has it's bobbin case intact. He said i will take $2.00. So I brought it home.
    If I can't find a cord for it then I might decorate it with buttons like the one that was posted on here before.

    I might contact the brother sewing place in Paducah and see what they say. It has their sticker on it so they must have handled it at one point.

    Way cool!! I'm Happy for you, hope you can find a cord and get it up and running. But if not will be cool to see it covered in buttons. If you need buttons let me know. I bet I can find a few around here.
    :-D

    I sent an email to a guy that says he has parts for all sewing machines so we will see if he has it. he will probably want a small fortune for it.
