    Wow What a haul for that kind of money. She gave it away. The threads alone would have been three times that.

    WOW!!!!!!!!!! What a deal. Didn't you feel even a little guilty gettting such a steal of a deal? Almost too good to be true, huh? Congratulations on such a wonderful purchase.There should be lots of happy sewing days ahead for you.

    I sewed on her a little last night. Played with the computer feature trying out some of the decorative stitches. It has a mirror feature that was kinda fun. I am thinking that some of these would be fun on a crazy quilt. It seems to sew very well. Not too fast or too slow. Also my generic quarter inch foot fits well, so that is a plus. I have not tried my walking foot or hoppy foot, but they should fit.

    And yes, I do feel a bit guilty getting her for such a good price. The woman that owned it passed away and it was her family that was selling her stuff. I am just hoping that she is up there, happy that her machine will be used and loved. Her son said that she sewed, but the machine does not appear to be heavily used. so maybe she did not sew too much or just took super good care of her stuff.

    I was looking at something very similar on Ebay yesterday. And if it would have been $25.00 I would have bought it. But even Ebay, is to much for what I want. Lucky you!!!!

    And what is Craig's list. I've heard of it, but not sure what it is.
