Dear Margaret,
Thank you so much for the machine. I thought I would not get one and had been looking in Thrift Stores trying to find one to help my daughter in law Sharon with her project to teach and help young ladies who have no idea of how rewarding and enjoyful sewing can be. Thank you for helping us move forward.
God bless and keep you.

My mother lost her machine in the storm. She sews more than I do so I will probably bless her to have it at her home.

I lost everything in Katrina. I sat on my roof for 4 days. I want to make simple clothes for myself. To pay someone is too expensive.
