Well my Mom has one at her house. It belonged to my great, great grandmother originally. So that means that my great great grandmother, my great grandmother, my grandmother, and my mother have all sewn on that machine! I want to carry on the tradition and sew on it too. My Mom said the last time she tried, it still works. We would need to have it serviced I'm thinking, but I want to make a dress on this so bad!!! How cool would that be to sit down and sew at the place that has so much history in your own family. Just think of all the things that sewing machine has seen!!! I get so excited about stuff like that!
Yes. It was my great grandmothers and I received it when my grandma passed away (there's only my dad and 2 uncles so I got it as the first born grand daughter)
It needs a new belt, but This summer my husband is going go try and change out the belt and see if we can get it running. I love it! It's gorgeous!!
