I have news! Wonderful news! I... have....
Drum roll please...
Purchased a vintage sewing machine in it's own darling sewing table!!!
As you probably guessed, I am very excited.
It is the most unique sewing machine I have ever seen. And it sews beautifully! I adore everything about it! Really - have you ever seen a robin's-egg-blue sewing machine? It reminds me of a soda fountain and a retro rocket ship rolled into one. I think it was made sometime in the 50s. And... I made the bargain of the century by getting the machine, table, a chair, a sheet of glass to set on top of the table, and a can of touch-up paint for $20!
I am smitten with the table, too... the cunning little thing! If only I had a place to put it, now... that would be perfect! As it is, I guess I'll have to keep it on the back bunk. Only then I can't open it. Patience, patience...
*Slam* Now we can go home!!
(Name that line...!;)
~Happy Trails!~
This is a ridiculously late comment--after all, it's a three-year-old post-- but I was browsing back posts and came across this one and couldn't resist squealing a little over the quote at the end. Fiddler on the Roof! One of my very favoritest films! Congratulations on the amazing bargain (very late congratulations... heehee...)
