Vintage sewing machine

    my latest flea market find! Bargain!!!
    When I asked the lady how much it would cost, I was waiting for her to answer something like 40 Euros, but when she said 4 Euros my cousin and I both hold our breath lol and I gave her the 4 Euros without hesitating.
    It fit's so well in my studio!
