Does she sew on lace really well?

Love it!

As for the machine: You'll be so happy you went with the upgraded model; you won't be wishing you had the extras in just a few months.

The name: THE most clever naming of a machine I've ever heard. Love it, love it. Although it might freak me out a little if my father said that...

I guessed the Linda answer BEFORE I saw it posted. I'm rather proud of myself....I'm 74 years old!

If you need further details, please google it as I really don't think I can explain any further.....

I love my vintage Singers, but when I want embroidery or fancy stitches, I head toward mine. Love, love, love it!

You think your dad is going to TELL you he knows about Linda or her movie? :)

i am rolling with laughter. the idea that she was named linda because she is pretty, made me smile. but the true explanation made me totally crack up! your dad is great and totally on the ball!!

You and your Dad must have a cool relationship! Enjoy your machine!
