I love your machine! Once you get it clea...OMGosh! I love your machine! Once you get it cleaned up she is going to be absolutely lovely. I have a 1918 Singer 99k that I restored and I love the stitches she makes. If you are at all handy restoring your machine yourself is not out of the realm of possibility, as I said, I restored mine. There are a lot of youtube videos that will guide you if you decide to go that route. Does the wheel turn freely and does the needle move up and down freely on your machine? You are lucky, the stencil work on yours is in beautiful condition from what I can see. I will look up some of the links for those youtube videos and come back and leave them in another comment. You can get in touch with me at pinkopossumstudio at gmail dot com if you want to chat further about your machine.

Unbelievable. They told me around 12 years ago I had tennis elbow, but it was Ulner Nerve and Carpel Tunnel returning. I had a brace that I wore at night to keep me from bending my elbow. Fun time with those heavy things on both arms. I still wear my CT brace on my left hand even after 2 CT surgeries. I recommend braces only! It is mostly because we use our hands so much and for the elbow it is when we keep them bended too much. Hope that all is going to help that pain go away! Also there is a trigger point on that area of the elbow (top part) for Fibromylgia - Now aren't you happier with all this stupid information! LOL. Take care and I have a couple of your Mom's patterns in my 2019-2020 project list! I miss your Mom's wonderful work!

It's not quilting that caused it. Mine is from lifting glasses of water. It's not the water or ice, its from lifting glasses that weight over 1 pound. I knew they were heavy, but not that heavy. (My husband picked them out. Happy husband, happy life.)
