    Ha! We've been here since 1965 and I know everything that's here -- but I don't know if I could FIND it. :lol:

    That White machine looks like a gem. I have a newer model ('70's) and it has been a workhorse. It was my first zig-zagging machine after my straight stitching Singer. It's all metal and heavy as can be, but it sews a beautiful seam. You can get ready to put that little blue gem to work.

    Well now that I have gone through everything I am pretty much assured I know what is here. I HOPE I can find things when I need them. I have been pretty much organized in setting things up. Still have quite a few boxes to go through including some very pretty stemware and things like that.
    The machine is going to be a wonderful addition for me as I can now FMQ since the feeddogs go down at the turn of a switch on this one.
