    I will get a picture of it. Mine isn't as nicely stacked as Harrishs, I have to keep it in plastic totes.

    I have gone through 3 totes and so far there is 300 yards of fabric. I have about 30 more to go through. LOL

    Good for psthreads to get your stash. No way would I get rid of mine. I don't collect machines either. No room.

    This is amazing - I too gave 3 big hugh garbage bags of fabric to the Salvation Army - they are going to teach people to quilt and needed donations - I was so happy to help out and cleaned out my space as well - it was a terrific feeling!

    I have that exact sewing machine that belonged to my Grandmother who taught me how to sew on it. Some how I have lost the foot pedal, but am hoping to get it up and running again!
