Searching for a Hespeler
I went to a sewing machine museum yesterday. It is in New Hamburg Ontario. Over 300 machines and the owner shared a wealth of knowledge. I should have taken pictures but I was too mesmerized!
Anyhow, he has a machine called a Hespeler. Made in Canada. He is trying to find out if anyone has one or knows of any in existence.

I have been trying to make arrangements to go since last year but we have had lots of family 'senior' issues that has required our attention and energy. Things are slowly being resolved so hopefully in the Spring

Is Miriam, Canadian Girl? ... if so, looks like you and I may be closer, as I am about 4 hrs to Windsor.
A meet up in New Hamburg would be fun ... plus there are two LQS' there!
