    I wonder what he wants for it? Current high bid is $860 and the reserve is not met.

So much to do and so little time. I have not had time to sew or play with my machines. Did pick up a 27 Sphinx with very good decals with very little silvering. I need to post my machines in the photo section someday. I have a 1968 New Home (electric with cams I bought when son was born) Made his clothes with it. The manual also said to remove the foot and it FM very well but only did it once. I prefer my treadles.
    WHAT??? Weather in the 80's??? We have had everything here in the past few days except warm weather, rain, snow, sleet, and below freezing temps in the morning. Oh did have a few sunbreaks yesterday. HAH! My garden is still under wraps, I cover all of my planting beds with old cardboard to prevent weeds, until late April. I have learned my lesson about thinking it was Spring and planting too early. One plus is that I can quilt, there is one silver lining to all of our clouds around here.

    This is that collection we were all drooling over last week, not just that one cabinet.

    It's a fact that there are only around 12 known to exist.
