    My DD ended up going to pick up the Davis yesterday. It is still in the back of her truck and she is going to bring it over to me today. What a trooper she is. Once I mapped the location of the sewing machine I knew I could not leave my mother for such a long period of time. As it was, it was a 7 hour trip down and back for DD. She said it was waaay out in the boonies and the sellers could have been extras from the movie Deliverance.

    After some creative re-arranging there is a space in the garage for the Davis. I am hoping that the cabinet will look better in person than the pictures. BUT the sellers did say it had been in the barn for years. DD did not take any pics so Charlee you will have to wait a bit. I just know that DH will be standing by as we unload the sewing machine and shaking his head in disbelief.

    The disbelief is because DH knows you'll probably put him to work fixing it ......

    I would have gone and gotten it too.

    Brought an eldredge two spool in original cabinet today, not too bad shape. Decals are descent shape, needs some cleaning, but all there with attachments, didn't see the manual. Forgot to take a picture, going to pick it up on Wednesday, will post pics at that time.
