I'm wondering if it's worth the two-hour drive. It sure is inexpensive. It

Hey all,
I was hoping that someone could be of assistance. I am looking at
purchasing a sewing machine in the next month (that is if I can make up
my mind). I have narrowed it down, unless I get better suggestions to

addition)....

This should be labelled "True Confessions of a Yard Sale Addict." The
Thrill of the Hunt: it's a never-ending marvel, the stuff you can turn
