Oooh! I want white one so bad!! I've only seen one for sale and it was pricey--$475.00. I have two and love them both. It's a beauty.

PS My Mom worked at a Levi Strauss plant back in the 1960's...have to agree, she totally has some stories from working with mainly all women...and yep, a couple of fights happened, too...

She looks just like the one my son got for me at Goodwill! Mine still has the inspection sticker, too! And, I'll bet she's never had a LOT of sewing done on her! I got lucky -- my son only paid $50, but no case or attachments! That's fine, because I'll only use her for piecing, etc. Congratulations on your machine, she's beautiful! You'll love sewing on her!

I wasn't lucky enough to get for$50 lol. But I only paid a little over 200. The auction stated bobbin problem so I think it must have scared some people off. Lucky for me!

Wow, you are one lucky quilter! It looks beautiful, and to have the case in such terrific shape is just about unheard of. At least, that has been my experience. Have fun with it.
