New Toy


Do you want another hint to my new "toy" or do you just want me to show it to you?
















She's a 1994 Nolting. Actually found her on Craig's list in the NE part of the state. The lady had owned her for three years and NEVER used her. She wanted a computerized machine and was not going to use this one until she got the new one!




I've learned how to thread the machine wrong, how to not load a quilt correctly and probably a few other things backwards too. It'll take some time, but she purrs like a dream.
She's not computerized nor does she have anything fancy on her, but we get along great! I found a baby panel and practiced on it and I think this is the beginning of something new and exciting.

:O That's cool. I'd gladly take one that wasn't computerized as long as it was in my price range. :D

Have fun with that "toy."
Hugs,

Does she have a name yet? Can you use her while recuperating??? She's a beauty.

How exciting!!! I can't wait to see what all you do with this!! Mine is plain too, nothing at all fancy but it does the job just fine, I'm sure you will figure it all out soon. I did have a clue what to do when I got mine.
