Looking for Sewing Machine Donation
Hi Quilters, I’m relatively new to SRQG, but have been sewing since I was knee-high to a treadle machine. I’m looking for a donation (tax deductible, of course) of a sewing machine in a cabinet for the YWCA Women’s Shelter. Preferably, 20-40 yrs old with good old metal parts. Any portable would help also. My plan is to have a cabinet model stay in the house and also rehabilitate portables to be given away to a needy resident after she becomes adept at using it. I will be on-site frequently for instruction and to help with mending needs of women and children. Please email me at pianorescue@yahoo.com. Thanks, Suzanne Edison
