It was a day worthy of it for sure. My son moved 16 hours away that day. We may see him once a year. A lot of other stuff was built up, too. I needed to hit something. That was VERY satisfying even though my DH did most of it... I've had a lot of fun with the whole thing and seems like everybody else has, too. The avatar parade has been a hoot, too. The CL ad is down. I don't want them to kick me off... LOL... It has been fun to see how many spammers don't read the ad. I had to spell sewing machine right so it would come up on a search. Here is a copy of the ad in case you missed it:

Sorry I missed that post. I couldn't believe it either Miriam, but seems we have a small market or maybe there just aren't that many people willing to drive a while. I left the ad for 4 hours (used this time to try and convince self I didn't need it - didn't work!) and it was still there! The guy was filtering and said afterwards he didn't want someone to buy it just to sell it for more.
It was $150 and I made pyjama pants last week on it for Audrey: Love sewing with it. Winding bobbins is something I've yet to get the hang of.
