Wanted: \'Bernina 807 Minimatic\' sewing machine

Hi!

I'm after a sewing machine at the moment so I can continue my projects once my dressmaking course breaks up for the summer.

The one I'm after is called a Bernina Minimatic 807.

No luck on eBay yet, so thought it was worth posting here

Thanks,

Roxy

Have you tried looking at your nearest freecycle, (everything is free only to pick up ) it's a gamble if the thing works, but if a nice old lady then you would most like be ok

might be worth a look.

Have you checked a local sewing machine repair shop?

Did you ask the folks at http://sewingonline.co.uk

Hi,

Thanks to you both for the ideas.

I'm getting onto it now;)

Freecycle is a dangerous thing. My husband despairs of me regularly anyway, but not so much as the day I told him he needed to take me to collect a 60s kitsch as you like kidney shaped padded effect ( ) dressing table in his lunch hour as it neded saving from the tip..

I love it!
