    I'm looking for the posts on the FMQ springs and attachments that were done a couple weeks ago.
    I forgot to bookmark them. Can someone give me an idea of how far back to look?

    Okay, I have tried twice to resize the photos of the springs for Joe, but for some reason the photos aren't resizing.
    Sorry Joe, I know that you need to see the photos smaller. I don't know where that thread has gone on the attachments. You will just have to hunt through all the pages until you find that thread.

    It would be nice if there were just a couple of threads in the vintage sewing machine section since it is getting difficult to find certain threads.

    This thread would stay of course, as well as the FW, 301, quilts, tutorials, and machines photos. I can understand that it is difficult to oversee all the new threads that are formed, and to just place them in the vintage machine site is the easiest. BUT, it is getting to be a bit too much with all the different threads that have been started.

    Maybe there should also be just one thread on "look at my new vintage machine" since folks don't wish to post in this thread that Billy had started for that purpose (just one reason). Then the mods can place a freshly started thread into that one thread and then there will not be x number of threads per day or week.

    Just my opinion-Monica.

    Joe,

    Monica started the new thread about the springs on 3-21. I think the discussion on this group was started just before that.
    Hope that helps.

    This is a test on resizing photos.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]325404[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]325405[/ATTACH]

    I had to resize to 20%.

    Only one worked. Sorry for the test, but I'm having difficultly posting images that have been resized.

    vintagemotif,

    Don't worry about me seeing the pics I can download them to my HD where they display just fine.

    It's been raining all day today so I thought I would clean up my 1910 Lotus. She sews as smooth as a babies bottom and smells good too, used baby oil. Here's a few pictures I took, then DH added his idea too. I made the dolls on a 1919 66 Red Eye.

    Love your Lotus!! I have a 1909 Lotus 66-1, and just love how she sews. Thanks for showing yours to us.
