I have a similar Kenmore with the clam-shell case that needs a new home. If anyone in the Boston/Worcester MA area is looking for one, I am looking to sell it. Is there any hope of finding a local buyer for the cute machine?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17840432903593430990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-79617619856176852982016-08-13T12:02:18.196-04:002016-08-13T12:02:18.196-04:00Darling Sadie!

I was thinking of long-arming it and just straightening out the edges. It was from a friend who knows nothing specific about it. Alternatively I could baste on long arm and then finish it in the next decade.... What do you think? I am thinking getting it used is better than having it sit.

The large red knob is the clue that it's not a 1040, which has a silvery knob.abelianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12435435610527429193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-33593512144650610762016-08-12T16:32:09.158-04:002016-08-12T16:32:09.158-04:00Glad the 201 found a home.

I have been in the Brass Armadillo in Phoenix, but the sewing related finds were very few. Always fun to look around these places.

I have a vintage improved nine patch with cheddar as its background and love it. Whew on your correction so that is two for the list to double check; batiks and button hole!!

Maybe some day. Love the machines and quilts you post. I've never been to that area of the country but love the arched sign and so glad it's still there and not modernized or changed much. Looks like a lovely town. The quilt shops sign looked so small though, I could hardly read it. I am glad you had a great time there.Natalie in Mainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09074104251813496164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-64571775105428833372016-08-12T11:36:53.649-04:002016-08-12T11:36:53.649-04:00Debra, it was fixed before you even posted your co...Debra, it was fixed before you even posted your comment...HA!
