My baby's back
My beautiful pink Morse sewing machine is back from her vacation with the restoration guy. She had every little mechanism fixed and fine-tuned. The mechanic even removed the "Morse" lettering and touched up the black paint between the letters. It's like she's been to the spa and the cosmetic surgeon. There were a lot of signs of wear and tear but now she sews beautifully and fast with a soft hum.
Hats off to S.O.S. Machines for the wonderful restoration work. Visit the website for some beautiful vintage machine eye candy.
She has a faint smell of lubricant still, so I'm going to run some old fabric through just to make sure there isn't any excess. Then I'm going to assign her a project. I think she needs some vintage fabric to work on. I was able to get a case too, so she has a stable base now.
What should she work on first?

She's beautiful. Her time was well spent at the spa. Thank you for the link. I just love old sewing machines!
Beautiful machine - worth the restoration cost, I'm sure.
