    I am still working on them and the two spool. Lots more cleaning to do but they are looking much better. I think my knee is about to heel but still hurts. Growing old in not for wimps that is for sure.

    Wow Skip you are really expanding your collection - and I might add with some really nice machines! The last 3 machines you've picked up are all amazing and in really great shape. I have never seen a Jones that was not very ornate! Thank you for sharing. Geeze, does Indiana have all the nice machines? I might have to come over and visit Miriam too!

    Talking about Miriam, I should be receiving my new two-tone 301 tomorrow or the next day! I am excited as I am in a sit and sew all day tomorrow, a strip club Wednesday evening, and a marathon table runner class all day Thursday! I should be able to get to know my new machine in one of those classes! It is going to be so much fun!

    I hope it arrives intact Nancy. I can't possibly buy all the cool machines I find around here.

    Thanks Nancy, Pat is just about ready to cut me off these machines but she did say I could have a chain stitch if I found one.

    No the guy was suppose to send some pics but he didn't - I've just seen a lot of ads.
