Yes, I did it again. I visited the local thrift shop and came home with a new/old sewing machine.
And lookie! He came with a manual, all the original attachments, and a button hole kit!
All the gold leaf is in great condition, motor works, crank works, bobbin was there and it looks like it was just serviced!
It is a 201, which a little google research indicates is a jewel of a machine.
And I even love the table it came in!!! One leg is a little wobbly, but that can be fixed.
And this is what I am working on till more flags are ready to be assembled. I really need a design wall. My floor is not doing it for me for laying out and previewing :(
The 201 is very popular with quilters. It is gear driven, and very strong. Plus, the space under the arm is a bit larger than normal machines. You did good!
ReplyDeleteNicely done!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beauty, Diane! It presents well, so shiny and cool! I like your tumbler project, too. So, do you not like the up and down of floor planning, or is it the design help of a four legged kind?

beautiful baby!
ReplyDeleteLove the machine.
ReplyDeleteI have a great design wall. A plastic table cloth on a curtain rod. LOL works well.
