    Default Sewing machine from Thrift store find - update!
    Well ladies! yes she is a 66... right smack in front of me she beared the model number 66! I brought her in thinking no one would notice.. yeah right.... I opened her up, threaded her and said a prayer... OMG... she is wonderful.... I did nothing to her... tension was set and perfect.... Edith has found her forever home and she will be the one I will sew on for now!

    Edith is sure a beauty. She looks barely used.

    Wow! Great find! These machines are so easy to work on when the tension goes off, etc.

    I love her name Edith. Just this past week Edith of ALL IN THE FAMILY died. It is a fitting tribute to her. Happy quilting. Hugs
