In October of 2018, I purchased a Jones Swan Neck Sewing machine from France, on eBay. The purpose of selecting this machine is that when restored, it is quite beautiful. I intended on taking a class from Ray Elkins of Sew Purty workshops, in Elkhart, Indiana. Ray teaches you to tear down the machine, soak off rust, clean and polish the paint, clean and polish metal parts, oil parts and put the machine back together Here are the before photos: Here are some after photos, after taking the weekend retreat with Ray Elkins: Close up of the cleaned up logo overall machine
