So, my birthday is coming up in a few weeks and my family has been speculating on what to get me. My mother-in-law has been in Michigan visiting her son. Just so happens they have been trying to get rid of a sewing machine and cabinet they bought JUST to have a piece of "furniture" in a certain place in their home.
My wonderful, sainted mother-in-law mentions that I have been looking for a cabinet/table in which to put my machine and she offers to buy it for my B-day. He says "NO WAY! I'm giving it to him for his birthday" and ships it back with his mom.
So my wife tells me tonight,"Mom's home and she brought you a birthday present back from Michigan, but you still have to work on the tile this weekend!" So now I am intrigued, so i agree to go to her parents house. We get in the car and 10 minutes later this is what I am met with...
and
A fully functioning, 1942 Sears, Roebuck and Co., Kenmore Imperial Rotary Sewing machine model # 117.591
I couldn't believe it. Thank you brother!!!
It needs a little tlc and cleaning but the only thing that is not working is the bobbin winder. That will soon be remedied.
