    As i was looking on Craigslist at job listings, i just thought I'd type in sewing machines. Well i clicked on an ad that just said Estate sale April, 30. Well here is what i found. I have a baby finally.....I'm naming her Maria after my grandmother how taught me how to sew on her Singer trundle Machine. These pictures were taken as soon as I got her home, she is beautiful even dirty. I need to get the cord replaced it seems a little old and I don't want anything to happen to her. It came with so many different feet and I don't even know how to use them yet. The original manual was in the case too.

    Here's the site to check your SN to see when "Maria" was born.
    I looked it up but thought you might want the pleasure of doing it yourself. You did GOOD!!!!

    How fortunate you are. She was born on or slightly after March 18th, 1935.
