Needs a few little parts, belt of course, bobbin winder tire, etc. and a regular presser foot! That one was gone. I hope Billy can fill my list. I will pm him and ask. Can't wait to sew on this sweet thing. :thumbup:

Nancy What size needles are you using? Many New Home machines take 20 X 1 needles instead of the standard 15 X 1. Nancy |

Nancy Nope, her name is "Miss Peggy". The lady that I got her from was given the machine by her sister, Peggy and I had a sweet, little old substitute teacher in the 7th grade whose name was hard to pronounce, so she had us call her Miss Peggy. Everyone just loved her to death. So, Miss Peggy it is. Nancy |
That is one beautiful machine. Enjoy it. Kathie
