The ultimate sewing machine

someone is insane!!

I can't believe you can actually sew on it -- without either ripping off the ornamentation... or having your fabric catch on it.

and the Buy It Now price.... what is this guy smoking?

Well, sorry, but I think it's rather ugly... wouldn't want it in my house. And regardless if it works or not, who'd even want to sew with it??? Ugh. And the price?????

That has got to be one of the most horrifying things I have ever seen.

I don't know what he was smoking but they grow a lot of it over in the adjoining county. At first I thought it was downright blasphemous but when I got to the close-up with the tassels on the legs, I just lost it. That's a belly laugh for sure. Aren't people fun? Polly

I can't imagine anyone taking that much time to make something so ugly!

It's cute and all, but who would want to ruin a perfectly good machine like that?

OMG that is *hideous*. What an awful thing to do to a sewing machine.

In fact, I would even go so far as to use one of DH's favourite phrases "like the inside of a tart's handbag" - dunno how he knows what one of those looks like though.

Lizzy

Hummmm..... I have that same machine that's sitting in a cabinet and not being used. Maybe I need to start embellishing it. Yuck. That's a waste of tacky embellishments. I love Polly's remarks.

Oh, come on ladies. Where are your bids? At first look, it looks like a sewing machine with a swarm of honeybees on it. But it's wonderful that we're all so unique, that people have different tastes. That's the nicest thing I can think of to say about that poor machine.

Sherry

Why would anyone do that to what apparently was a perfectly good machine. Seems to me that it would lessen its value considerably. Oh, well. Maybe someone else will appreciate it a lot more than I do. Or maybe this is someone's idea of a joke.

By the way it reads they think they have this great vintage machine and original table that is worth some big money. Then by 'upholstering' it as they put it, they added a bunch more value. Yea right. It may work as they say, but how easy would it be to sew on that? It really devalued it from vintage standpoint (IMHO). I really wish them luck in selling it. It would take someone with very unusual tastes and a fat wallet to buy that using their buy it now price.

Hm... Flies like a lead canary.

Loosen up your humor sphincters all ye who are critics aghast. What a hoot! The only thing that tops this is the big hairy, tattooed guy who sold the ex's wedding dress by modeling it himself.

Still laughing, Val

Howdy!

I'm appalled! Appalled, I tell you!

Someone went to all the trouble to decorate that alluring detritus, matching the encrusted jewels to the coordinating archaic, jeweled fandiboloos, selecting just the right shades of soft coral to compliment the beige bejibbafoops, adding the dangly bits of tasselations & fripperies, and then had the gall, the nerve, the cheeky, impudent impertinence to top it off w/ a spool of audacious, malapropic DARK BLUE thread! Why, the very idea! Shockingly bad taste. Inauspicious talent. Hand me the shotgun! I can't take any more of this: shoot that sucker now before it breeds!

Looks like it's been taken over by a new form of Kudzu. I'd be ascared to go to sleep in that house.

Cindy

No, YOU'RE fun - this guy's crazy.

Cindy

I have to ask - what's a bejibbafoop? Haven't met one of those yet in my journey through life!
