New To Me

A”new to me” sewing machine that wasn’t working for the prior owner. I took it apart, did some deep cleaning, applied oil and grease where needed and took it for a test drive. Works wonderfully now. These old Kenmores are amazing work horses -that sew beautifully. Thank you Diane———I love it. –
