Miss No name Leader is in the house. My weight lifter grandson wrapped his arms around the cabinet and carried her in easily. She is very dirty as is the 128. I have my work curt out for me when the weather breaks. She is a cutie. I copied the book so I'm not trashing it as I learn what I need to know. The seller has Singer attachments in with the Leader, so I have a ruffler for both machines. Woohoo! Here we go: Nancy |

Kathie, I just sent you a copy of the 99 manual. It is 75 pages long so when you open it - it might take a minute. Just scroll down - the first page is blank! Nancy |

It's designed to be printed out and kept in a notebook, for working on sewing machine reconditions. Nancy |

Enter phase II. :-D Nice looking horse and half a rider! Nancy |

Sewbizgirl,
Thank you for the "Tools for Self Reliance" site you just posted. . . herein I believe will be the answer I asked for help on last night. . . I have a lot of reading to do and things to adjust and I'm hopeful of a resolution to my stitching problem on my Redeye. |
