But I wouldn't look for those anytime soon. I'm still working on how to thread the machine. I didn't get a huge response for the Kelly's kids party but I might send out an email again and see if anyone jumps this time around.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04286536071789552916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3064622091237893499.post-84309542037289711922010-03-23T13:27:56.858-05:002010-03-23T13:27:56.858-05:00I have 2 sewing machines in my possesion right now...I have 2 sewing machines in my possesion right now and I could tell you the first thing about them.

Like maybe Brother or Morse? Or JC1 or JA1 or something? <br />Get the dust and fuzz out before you try to oil it. Take the needle plate off and pull the fuzz out with sharp pointed tweezers or a toothpick.It will likely be all over the feed dogs.There is also a yahoo group called wefixit that is all about repairing & refurbishing vintage sewing machines. <br />I love this stuff!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835029045020460943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3064622091237893499.post-13556400180319233802010-03-22T11:50:23.395-05:002010-03-22T11:50:23.395-05:00Liz, I'm thinking the same thing and have been...Liz, I'm thinking the same thing and have been trying to think of a good one.
