    I used to I gave it to my sister. I think she still has it. It did sew nicely, but I got a new machine from my mom (that was like 17 years ago)

    You did good! This morning I walked away from a "TRUNDLE SEWING MACHINE - $150" It looked like a Singer Treadle that had been converted to electric. Already spent my money on material!
