Thanks Everyone for the good wishes.... I really do feel better already, (still a bit tired, but not bad!) and since I have more quilts to make and machines to use, I'm not ready to "check out" yet!! :)
The spousal unit is working on that "new" Redeye that he brought home...the guy he got it from had the lid and dropped it off the other day! :D YAY!! |
What a cute paint job on the California machine! I love those flowers and the orange color.
The 404 is very dirty so it'll be a day a day or so until I can see if she's "Singer's finest straight machine". As a 301 fan, I have my doubts and I'm sure 201 fans feel the same way. |
Those sure look like a Poppy field on that darling machine. How appropriate for a Californian (owner and machine).
Please educate this old lady....what is a TOGA (presumably not the same type party as in my day)? |

I'm going to try again to post the pic of the GKs working in my shop...
[ATTACH=CONFIG]364817[/ATTACH] what an attitude, Miss L!!! Then the Wilbur climbed up there and grabbed a Qtip to 'help' [ATTACH=CONFIG]364818[/ATTACH] I couldn't get the pics to load the other day. As soon as I got the pics shot I had to move them so they wouldn't fall off. They all love my shop and fight over who gets to 'help' I better look inside that machine to see if there are any Qtips hiding... |
That's adorable.

Hey Folks- here's a machine I picked up on the way home from TOGA. Isn't it cute? It looks like the motor caught fire, because there is a scorch where the motor mount was. But, with the motor gone, you can see the "made in occupied Japan" label. Fun, huh? Laura [ATTACH=CONFIG]364749[/ATTACH]

I am "hip deep" in Japanese clones, but if I had seen this one I would have taken her home also. And she is a hand crank now, awesome! What is the JA number? It would be interesting to know what factory made her.

OK, now I'm feeling guilty and I've had my fun!:o I "badged" the machine and put the deacls on. Then I used Skipper's method of french polish to seal it all in. The made in Japan I didn't make up. When I saw it with no name at all, I sort of.....FAKED IT! :confused:Laura
I think it is a work of art and worthy of duplication. Not that I don't have enough projects going on, LOL |
