From – Feb 1 2010
I told my husband that I wanted a Singer Featherweight. He started his standard complaint about my quilting, “You already have enough sewing stuff!!!!!”
But, fate stepped in. We went to exchange his lease car and then planned to leave for vacation one Friday morning. Hours at the dealership led to his driving home a brand new Lexus GS. Boy was he excited.
We then returned home to pack up for a week at the cabin, him fishing, me sewing. It was then that he realized that my big quilting machine and all of the other stuff would not fit into his brand new car so he would have to pack up the old van. With a heavy, heavy heart he drove out of the driveway to leave his shiny brand new car at home all alone for the next week.
Upon our return, he insisted I step up my search for the featherweight I wanted to find. He has never been so pleased with a sewing machine purchase than he was as I displayed my 1954 pristine Singer. Now we can drive the car and take along my sewing!
