Hoping I Get To Keep One of These Babies
1 Attachment(s)
These are two machines that my DH has totally refurbished, inside and out. I hope he lets me keep one for myself, it seems like it would be the only fair thing to do! Don't ya think.
Keeping my fingers crossed. I have wanted one for a long time, so will have to see how things go. |
Both are gorgeous!!! I have a feeling you will get one so you might let him know which one it is you would like!
|
They are just beautiful I hope he lets you keep one!!!
May I ask what he used to shine them up so nice? Colleen |
They are beautiful
Of course it's only fair that you get to keep one.. Barri |
Keep the one in front. It is a little older and has the more elaborate face plate. You definitely deserve one!
|
I agree on keeping the front one. I also want to know how he got them so shiny. Will he share the secret with us?
Thanks. |
He stripped these machines to bare metal, painted and finished them with a clear coat. I felt like I was driving a new car (LOL), when I was taking them for a test drive to be sure they were all timed correctly and sewed a good stitch.
|
I can tell you I'd have the front one or know the reason why. LOL Beautiful
|
You need the machine on the front. I so hope you get to keep it! Don't you love sewing on those Featherweights!
|
He did a great job and hope you get the one you want.
|
They are beautiful, you should get one, may be 2 ?????
|
Beautiful. I wish I liver closer to you so he could shine mine up and replace the scroll work on the bed. Keep the one in front for yourself.
|
Totallly drooling. Wish I could get one. Lucky lady. They are beauties. :):):)
|
If he repainted them how did he manage to salvage the decals? They are gorgeous. Can I have one? I would love a FW.
|
Both are beautiful.
|
I too would keep the one in front. prettier than the other. How did he keep the decals on it when he redid it?
|
Your DH is very talented! Make him his favorite dinner with dessert and then ask him for the machine with the fancy face plate!!!!! Good Luck!
|
He has to let you keep one. It was your idea to begin with.
|
So pretty!!!!!!
|
Oh my goodness! What a beautiful job:)! I denfinitely think you should have at least one! You are the quality control officer, so you should have a machine to compare to!

LOL, I love that reason Pat.
Thanks guys for all the comments. Verdict is still out, it is kinda like a mechanic that fixes cars: he usually fixes the cars at home last, because he knows he can get to it later.

He did a great job. Do you help him find the machines in need or rehab?
|
Wow!! Those are GORGEOUS!!! If it was me, I wouldn't ask - I'd just take the one I wanted and say, "This is MINE!!!!":o

I'd give him a kiss and get all excited and say "Oh how wonderful! I always wanted twins!!! but twin featherweights is so much better - no potty training required!" You might end up with both of them.
|
KarenR, you have the right idea!! Take both and let him fix up two more since he does such a good job at it!
|
Wow! Very beautiful!

Just remind him that marriage is a 50-50 partnership and your keeping your half. LOL Enjoy the new addition to your family.

They are beautiful
Of course it's only fair that you get to keep one.. He did a great job !! |
