Since your daughter can't go to the stores easily, you might try
looking for the little mender sewing machines at walmart.com and have
it sent to her dorm. Some of the menders do have zig zag so if the
ones walmart has don't fill the bill you might try other chain stores.

Those tiny tailor things? bwahahahaha, those things are useless peices of
junk. I'm MM hasn't brought that up as an option because she already knows
better.

Well, I can now report that it's a keeper. Used it through my 24-hour oncall
shift at the hospital and it's great. I've got very limited space there,
room for a bed and a desk and not much else, and there's a computer on the
desk already--but the little blue guy (gotta find a name for it) fit just
fine and worked very well. It does seem very nicely made.

Oops. Forgot to say that it's regularly $99 at Sears, and often on sale,
like now, for $79.


Thanks for the recommendation, which isn't the first one I've had for that
machine, but NO THANKS for telling me it's on sale for $79 right now --
now I want to go get myself one, even though I have no need of it! ROTFL
