    They only want $225. Wish I had the money to spare!

    I'm still new to quilting, and wonder what it is about this type of machine that is so important? Curious, open to learning.

    actually they said they added a NEW plug on it to make it work, and yet that plug is not visible in any of the pix..

    when NEW plugs are added, you can have electrical issues. so you would need to take this to a specialist to make sure things are ok with the wiring and plug...SO if it makes you all feel better, this might not be a good bargain! :thumbup:

    it not important to quilting, it is important to the quilter who wants to own one of everything!

    It also makes a great class machine as it is little and easy to carry along!

    I was interested in it because they are proven workhorses. Easily cleaned and maintained. To find one in the case with the attachments is a rarity. Whether it needed a cord (minor repair that I can do myself) or just cleaned it was a jewel that sold in hours. Still wish I had had the money to spare... Sigh. Guess I need to concentrate on getting my Franklin mounted in the treadle I was just given :)
