    Default My "Betty Blue" came back to me !!!

    I loaned Betty Blue to my SIL about 3 years ago , so she could sew some things for her grandaughter for Christmas ..... then there was a big family falling out, and I wrote Betty Blue off as a garage sale casualty ..... then, out of the BLUE ( hahaaaa ) they returned this machine to me - they are moving again and found her ! Things are better somewhat in the family dynamics , I am taking this return as a peace offering , since they could have easily sold her in one of thier MANY garage sales ..... I DO need to clean her up , vaccume her out , and I may be the winner of an ebay set of cams for her !!!

    I *think* she's a 1964 ...
    WELCOME HOME BETTY BLUE !!!!

    miz mary,

    Is that purty blue thing a 338? We just picked one up a couple weeks ago in a cabinet that's a pastel green. Sews as good as it looks too.

    How sweet when your baby comes home! Maybe you could quilt something nice for them. Forgiveness is as sweet as good pie.

    Wow, I hope my SIL will return my Singer. I have asked several times but as yet have not received it. She keeps saying she will but so far, no machine. It's making our relationship strained since it was given to me by my mom.
