I'll have to visit and see the museum if I'm ever near there. <br /><br />I think what I like most about antique sewing machines is that they're a kind of living history.

In durability and aesthetics they beat the pants off anything we make today! ;)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08461424837432543274noreply@blogger.com
