It is cute, but $1200 for such a simple machine... only a chain st. I guess the unusualness is what the price is for!

Nancy, that is an unusual machine! I have an idea that it should be in a museum, but it is too rich for my blood!

I'm having a heck of a time getting my old Davis VF to make feed the fabric through and make a nice stitch. Anybody that has one, do you have any advice? My frustration level is about to top out.........TIA

Here are My Two Pink Ladies that I got recently. My husband and I saw the Monarch and went home to think about it; I told my mother that we saw a pink sewing machine in the flea market and she thought it was the Atlas that was actually 75 miles away. They both surprised me, and each other with these prizes. Also I put the 404 that my mother paid me for doing a plumbing job. All of these machines sew great.

Make sure that it is threaded correctly. I have the NVF, so I can't help you if you have the older VF. Check your shuttle too.

Melinda,

Cutes machines. I particularly like the shade of pink and the shape of the little Monarch and the shiny handwheel! Congratulations!
