    Default Everyone...I want you to meet Olivia

    Here is Olivia. I really love her. I am so glad she has joined my family. It took a little bit, but I think I finally got her stitching wonderfully. She was awfully dry. She was born 1948. She came with a case almost in perfect condition and her gold scrolls show minimal wear.

    So does anyone else have a foot peddle that is not all black?

    The tab on the base marks my 1/4 seam..LOL

    Congratulations! Olivia is beautiful. Is there a part number on that controller? I want one. I wonder if it is original to the machine or an upgrade. I confess I'm not crazy about the button controllers. They get too hot at slow speeds.
