Only 5? Could I interest you in a few more? Do you need a Singer 66?
A 99? How about a 301? I've got several of each of those. Two 201s -
or do I have 3? You can't have my Wilcox & Gibbs, or any of the Pfaffs.
I would part with the Thompson Walking-foot machine, though.

Well, I don't know, do you "sew" or do you "craft"
"scrapbook" "bead jewelry", etc. It seems to me that most
of the TSWLTH real estate has been turned over to craft
items, "silk" flowers, garden pots, holiday kitsch, and that
very little is devoted to fabric, notions, interfacing, etc.
needed by those who "really sew". My comment was intended
to encourage those who need a real fabric store to take the
survey in hopes of directing TSWLTH back to being a fabric
store (which is what they were several years ago). YMMV

No crafting in my answers. I think I told a little white lie and said
no home decor, too.
