Kenmore 158.1940 |
we headed to Trader Joe's and then on up the Northway to Clifton Park to fetch this machine. Turns out, Betsy and I had been to this same address in June. They recognized me and I recognized them. Last June we bought Mom's machine; this time I bought hers. "I just don't use it and am trying to clear out."
I hear that story over and over again. People just don't sew. Tonight, though, we had company and I delighted in showing off the machines to our guests. D. loves to sew. She learned on a 201. She wants one. Her husband left tonight fearful that she will want more machines if she gets the 201. Of course I know she will, but I am determined to find her a 201. Is it bad to try to infect others with SMAD (Sewing Machine Acquisition Disorder) ?
Spread the JOY baby! Spread the JOY!!! Hee hee hee!
ReplyDeleteIf your "trying to infect" someone.... yes bad, very bad! If you are just enabling... a tad bit... then, no! Everyone should have a hobby/job/craft/activity to keep them busy! LoL....
ReplyDeleteLovely! These are awesome machines. My newest love affair is with a Kenmore 158.1914, also free arm and very similar to this one. Does this do chainstitching? the 1914 does and I was really surprised to discover that.
