    Default Woo hooo Getting a machine

    I have wanted a sewing machine for several years. Finally found a used one that is reasonably priced. It's an oldie but goodie. Going tomorrow to pick it up.

    Sounds exciting. I love having a sewing machine. Bought it over 20 years ago. It is very basic but I pull it out when I need to hem, sew up seams, or even try to make something. It has saved me so much money!
