I need to buy new belts and find where the mechanism is stucked but omg !
It's both electric and mechanic !
The serie number suggests it was built in 1908, i'm not sure I can trust this information. But maybe was it electrified later ? It was probably purchased in the 20' / 30' by my great grandma.
This may be of no interest to most of you, but with all the comments I got on my Impala portraits, I thought this would be of interest to some of you.
Original Photo
This is the original photo I used--it's of a fan car ("Night Moves") that was at Denver con 2022. What a great photo!
Posterize
In Photoshop, I posterize the photo to get chunkier blocks of color. I just play with the number of levels until I get a good representation.
Draw Lines
I place the posterized image in Illustrator (reversed) and then go to town drawing lines. The rule for pieced quilting is that every line you draw must go all the way until it hits another line. So for the first couple of lines, they go all the way from one end of the photo to the other.
I just keep drawing until I get something like this.
Paint the Pieces with Color
I bring the outlines into Photoshop so I can paint each individual piece with a solid color that will match the (future) fabric. Sometimes posterizing can result in dark colors, so you have some creative liberty to make changes. Note that these are still just screen colors; the actual fabric will differ again.
Outlines:

Number the Sewing Order
Paper piecing means that you sew through the paper and fabric. That way, you can be sure to place your seam perfectly.
Generally, in quilting, you want to sew a seam from one end to the other without running into any already sewn seams. For a traditional patchwork, this means you would sew 10 blocks, then sew a row of 5 blocks, and then sew another row of 5 blocks onto the first row.
Paper piecing is the same, but because no "block" is repeated, it's an exercise to determine the sewing order of each block, and then the sewing order of the blocks to each other.
A quilt like the Impala has a few hundred blocks of 1-15 pieces of fabric each. Within each block, the sewn size is near perfect. But sewing the blocks to each other introduces a lot of variability: the seams can be wider or narrower, or the alignment can be off. That's why the actual quilt looks "wonky" compared to the pattern. It's just not possible--for me--to get it perfect. If I didn't work so small, it would be easier.
Back in Illustrator:
You can see that the black lines are pieces within a block. The red lines are blocks. And the green lines are sections of blocks. It all needs to be sewn in order. I will make small changes to the sewing lines at this stage to "make it sewable."
Printing
Because printers aren't the best at replicating onscreen colors exactly (good luck telling the difference between black and dark purple), I have to recolor it to "printable" colors and then do a swatch concordance.
The bright green on the left actually represents lavender.
I print the pattern out on vellum, which is more durable than paper. Since this is 17" x 17", I will print out overlapping 8 1/2" x 11" sheets. Illustrator has a good printing function, so you can print the exact area you want.
Pick Fabric
I have collected a ridiculous amount of fabric. These want solids for the most part, and I looooove Cherrywood solid fabrics. Sometimes it's a challenge getting 5 shades of blue, or 6 beiges for their faces, so sometimes, I make color errors that I don't discover until later. Painful mistake. The above pattern uses 25 colors, but some of the faces use around 40.
Sew
This is a really challenging project. It would be easier if it were bigger! The pieces are so small, and when you start sewing blocks together, the layers get to be ridiculously thick with all the seam allowances. It's a true challenge to feed through the machine. Use a small stitch length; use a good machine with dual feed (Bernina!!! or maybe Pfaff).
Check out the back side of the previous Impala quilt.
I pull out the paper as I go, otherwise it will get accidentally sewn in.
Finishing
I don't do complicated quilting here. The piecing is what's on show! I embroidered the Chevrolet and the license plate lettering. Some things are really too small to piece.
Original Photo Again:
Conclusion
I think anyone could do this, in theory. It takes a lot of patience. And your sewing machine needs to be quality. And it helps to know how to use Photoshop and Illustrator. And you need to "get it" when numbering the pattern, in a mathematical way. And it's helpful owning all the fabric.
If you do try it, make a larger quilt; this size with this level of detail is crazy making.

Off Track with Hinch and Rossi – The Papaya One
While technically no longer a driver, James Hinchcliffe, known as Hinch, is still an integral part of the field. He remains friends with most of the drivers and serves as an informal liaison between them and the series, emailing drivers after each race asking for their concerns and forwarding them on to those in charge. Now in a broadcast role at NBC for Indycar and select IMSA races, Hinch does not rule out racing again, should the right opportunity arise. As of 2023, he has become a 'big F1 guy' commentating on select F1 races for F1TV
2019 ESPN Body Issue Controversy?
Rumor has it that Arrow disapproved of James baring it all and this contributed to him being 'relieved of his duties.' James remained under contract for 2020, under which he was required to be with the team on race weekends and make sponsor appearances, but was free to pursue other opportunities. In 2020, Hinchcliffe joined NBC Sports as analyst for IndyCar races and select IMSA races when he did not enter as a driver.
Read the ESPN article and view the pictures.
Hinch often referred to himself as the class clown of Indycar while he was a driver, bringing his slightly irreverent sense of humor out as often as he could. He’s a natural in front of a camera, entertaining fans throughout his whole career. He’s very intelligent and capable of explaining complex concepts in an easy to understand way. He’s got a sunny personality, is very personable and is almost always full of good humor and enthusiasm.

Pfaff began his career with Beveren where he spent 10 years before joining Bayern Munich. With Bayern he won 3 Bundesliga's in 6 years and also reached the 1987 European Cup final, losing to FC Porto. With the Belgian national team, Pfaff appeared at 2 World Cups and in the 1986 edition he was named in the team of the tournament as Belgium finished 4th, losing to a Maradona-inspired Argentina in the semis.
Pfaff was known for his excellent shot-stopping abilities aided by his rapid reflexes and acrobatic capabilities. He had a big personality on the field and was an authoritative presence commanding his penalty box, quick to fly off his line to meet attackers or else to claim crosses. Pfaff also developed a reputation for saving penalties.
Centre-Back- Franco Baresi- Italy
Franco Baresi spent his entire 20-year senior career with AC Milan, first joining the club's youth set-up as a 12-year old. He won 7 Serie A title's with the Rossoneri aswell as 3 European Cups. Baresi was made club captain aged 22 and was a part of Milan's all-Italian defence alongisde Maldini, Costacurta, Tassotti and later Panucci, which is often considered the strongest defence ever assembled. Some of Baresi's best achievements include being part of a Milan defence that conceded just 15 Serie A goals in the 93-94 campaign in which his team avoided losing all season as part of a record 58-game unbeaten run.
Baresi was a member of the Italy squad which won the 1982 World Cup but he did not feature in a World Cup match until the 1990 edition which Italy hosted, where they finished 3rd. 4 years later he captained his nation in the World Cup final against Brazil, though missed in the shootout which Italy would lose.
Baresi is considered one of the greatest defenders of all time, a world class player either at centre-half or as a sweeper due to the way he combined physicality with elegance, to be a defender who truly had it all. Defensively his reading of the game, timing of challenges, strength and intelligence made him extremely difficult to get past and then with the ball at his feet his distribution from the defence and the base of midfield allowed him to start attacks from deep. Baresi was the Balon D'or runner-up in 1989.
Centre-Back- Gaetano Scirea- Italy
After beginning his career with Atalanta, Scirea joined Juventus in 1974 and would spend the rest of his career there, winning 7 Serie A titles, the European Cup, the Cup Winners Cup and the UEFA Cup. Scirea was part of the 1982 World Cup winning team as Italy beat West Germany 3-1 in the final.
Scirea played the sweeper role for much of his career, which suited his excellent tactical and technical abilities. From that role, aswell as his defensive capabilities, his composed ability on the ball allowed him to also contribute offensively.
Centre-Back- Ronald Koeman- Netherlands
Koeman began his career with Groningen, before joining Ajax. After winning the league and the Dutch Cup there, he moved to PSV in 1986. With PSV he won the treble in 1988, helping the club to win the European Cup for the only time in their history. That summer Koeman also won the 1988 Euros with The Netherlands. Koeman then spent 6 years with Barcelona where he enjoyed even more success, as part of Cruyff's Dream Team which won 4 successive La Liga titles and its first European Cup in 1992, with Koeman scoring the games only goal in the final against Sampdoria.
Koeman is the highest scoring defender in football history, with a total of 252 goals, with a significant amount coming from penalties and free-kicks which he was adept at taking. He was best remembered for incredibly powerful long-range free-kicks, but he was just as capable at clipping or curling free-kicks in from closer range.
Defensive-Midfield- Frank Rijkaard- Netherlands
Riijkard is considered one of the best midfielders ever, mostly operating as a defensive midfielder. However due to being perhaps one of the most complete players ever he could play practically anywhere centrally, be it central defence, central midfield as a box-to-box or even as an attacking midfielder just behind the striker.
The Dutchman started his career with Ajax but would establish himself as one of the best players in the world at AC Milan where he would win 2 Serie A title's and 2 European Cups, with Rijkaard scoring the winning goal in the 1990 final against Benfica. Rijkaard then returned to Ajax where he would finish his career, winning another European Cup by beating his former club Milan in the final. At International level, Rijkaard also won the 1988 Euros with The Netherlands.
At 6 foot 3, Rijkaard was a powerful player, but for his size he also possessed excellent technical quality, which meant that when he won the ball back with his defensive brain and physicality, he could then be instantly dangerous offensively, due to his playmaking abilities from deep.
Centre-Midfield- Lothar Matthaus- Germany
Matthaus was often deployed as a box-to-box midfielder, which was the ideal position for such a complete player who was equally comfortable either bombing forward to score goals with his powerful shooting off either foot, or defending due to his positional sense and expertly timed tackling.
The German began in the Bundesliga with Monchengladbach before moving to Bayern Munich where he won multiple Bundesliga titles and reached the 1987 European Cup final which they lost to FC Porto. Matthaus then moved to Inter where he won a Serie A title and a UEFA Cup, before returning to Bayern where he won another UEFA Cup and lost another European Cup final, this time to Manchester United.
Matthaus is the most capped Germany player ever, winning 150 caps for his nation and winning the Euros in 1980 and the World Cup in 1990, 4 years after being a beaten finalist. Matthaus met Maradona and Argentina in both of those World Cup finals, and aswell battled against him in Serie A and Maradona would define him as "the best rival I ever had." Matthaus was the first outfield player to feature in 5 World Cups and won the Balon D'or award in 1990.
Centre-Midfield- Ruud Gullit- Netherlands
Gullit began his career with HFC Harlem, helping them to qualify for Europe for the first time in their history. From there he represented Feyenoord and later PSV before moving to AC Milan for a world record fee in 1987. There he would be part of a Dutch trio alongside Rijkaard and Van Basten which would help fire Milan to a glorious era with the first of 2 European Cups Gullit won with the club being secured in 1989, with Gullit scoring a brace in a 4-0 final win over Steaua Bucharest. A year earlier Gullit also scored in the 1988 Euros final, giving the Netherlands the lead against the Soviet Union, in a game the Dutch would go on to win 2-0.
At 6 foot 3, Gullit was an extremely powerful and athletic footballer, one of the best the game has seen at heading the ball, due to the height and power his leaps could generate. But Gullit was aswell so much more than just physicality, his game was also graceful and technical, with an elegant quality to his play.
Right Attacking Midfield- Zico- Brazil
Zico earned the nickname "the White Pele" with Pele himself observing that Zico was the one player who came closest to him. Zico was a creative 10, with the vision for a pass and the technical quality to execute it with him being considered one of the best passers ever. The Brazilian was also a prolific goalscorer, as clinical as a deadly striker and a free-kick specialist who remains high on the list for most free-kick goals ever.
The club mostly associated with Zico is Flamengo where he spent 16 years and won the Copa Libertadores in 1981. In between two spells with the club, Zico spent two years with Udinese in Serie A and later finished his career in Japan. With the national team Zico won 71 caps, scoring 48 goals and shone at 2 World Cups. In 1978 he and Brazil finished 3rd, but it is for the 1982 World Cup they are best remembered. Zico starred in a side which will likely forever be regarded as the best team to never lift the World Cup, as Brazil were knocked out by Italy 3-2, in one of the greatest games in the history of Football.
Number 10 position- Michel Platini- France
Despite playing as an offensive midfield player, a creative orchestrator behind a striker, Platini scored with the prolificacy of a number 9 due to being an extremely accurate finisher who did not often pass up good chances. He was also deadly from free-kicks and penalties and considered one of the best ever from those dead ball situations.
Beginning his career with Nancy, Platini scored 127 goals in 213 games for the club and won the French Cup before moving to St. Etienne where he scored 82 goals in 3 seasons and won a First Division title. Platini then spent the remaining 5 years of his career with Juventus where he won 2 Serie A titles, the Cup Winners Cup and the European Cup as the Frenchman scored the only goal in the 1985 final against Liverpool.
Platini also scored an impressive 41 goals in 72 caps for France, including 9 in 5 games at Euro 84, as Platini produced what remains to this day the best individual tournament ever at the Euros, as he scored in every game including 2 hattricks and the match winner in the semi-final against Portugal, before scoring again in a 2-0 final win over Spain. Despite lacking athleticism and physicality, Platini completely made up for such shortcomings with incredible technical ability, skill and the speed of his football brain. He won the Balon D'or 3 times consecutively between 1983 and 1985.
Left Attacking Midfield- Diego Maradona- Argentina
From the moment Diego Maradona made his debut for Argentinos Juniors 10 days before his 16th birthday, his nickname "El Pibe de Oro (the Golden Boy) was a fitting one. Growing to be only 5 foot 5 inches tall, Maradona used his diminutive height to his advantage with his low centre of gravity aiding him in being an astonishingly gifted dribbler, as quick as he was skilful. And what he lacked in height, he made up for in strength with his stocky frame helping him to ride challenges and brush defenders out of his way.
After a season with his dream club Boca Juniors, Maradona moved to FC Barcelona but after just 2 seasons he moved on again to Napoli, in doing so becoming the first player to set the world record transfer fee twice. Napoli were an unfashionable mid-table club, but with Maradona who quickly took on the role of a demigod to the people of Naples, Napoli won 2 Serie A titles and the UEFA Cup with absolutely everything running through their number 10. Maradona's demons were never far away though and his battle with drug addiction worsened, he left the club for short-lived stints with Sevilla and Newell's Old Boys before retiring at his beloved Boca Juniors.
Having narrowly missed out on making the 1978 World Cup squad, which Argentina won at home, Maradona featured at 4 World Cups. His most memorable performance came in 1986, where he carried Argentina to the trophy, scoring 5 and assisting 5 of Argentina's 14 goals. He scored what will forever be the most memorable brace in Football history in the Quarters against England. First Maradona scored the "Hand of God" goal, the most infamous goal ever as he jumped to punch the ball into the net, an action that was missed by nearby officials, and then just 4 minutes later he scored one of the greatest goals ever as he dribbled from the half-way line past any Englishman who tried to tackle him before rounding Shilton and slotting it home. Not satisfied, Maradona scored another world class brace in the Semis against Belgium, before assisting Burruchaga's winner in the final in a 3-2 win over West Germany.
Maradona will forever be considered one of the greatest footballers ever, and one of the best number 10's ever due to his dribbling, creative passing, finishing and free-kick taking ability. His dribbling in particular was at a level not seen before, and only seen since in the figure of another diminutive Argentinian number 10, Lionel Messi.
Striker- Marco Van Basten- Netherlands
Van Basten came through the ranks at Ajax, and quickly began scoring at a prolific rate in the first team, 154 goals in 174 games convinced Berlusconi to bring him to AC Milan. Van Basten helped Milan to dominate at home and on the continent, winning 2 European Cups with the Dutch striker netting a brace in the first final in 1989. A year before Van Basten lifted the Euros with the Netherlands, scoring one of the greatest goals in Football history, a stunning acrobatic volley from what appeared to be an impossible angle in the Final against the Soviet Union.
Serious injury unfortunately curtailed his career prematurely, with Van Basten playing his last match at just 28 years old. However, having netted over 300 goals the Dutchman still established himself as one of the greatest Number 9's ever. Nicknamed the "Swan of Utrecht" for his elegant style, Van Basten was one of the most complete strikers of all time. He could score all types of goals from all types of positions, having a knack for the acrobatic and a spectacular goal catalogue including a number of volleys and bicycle kicks. The power and accuracy on either foot meant that he could be deadly from outside the box and from inside his intelligent movement and heading ability meant he was always dangerous. Van Basten won the Balon D'or on 3 occasions, first winning in 1988 and then again in 1989 and 1992.
Subs:
Andreas Brehme- Germany
Brehme was an attacking full-back and one of the best left-backs of his era. He played alongside Matthaus at Bayern Munich and then Inter Milan, aswell as for the Germany national side, with Matthaus describing him as "the best player I ever played with". With West Germany, Brehme reached 2 World Cup Finals, both against Argentina losing the first and winning the second, with Brehme himself scoring the games only goal from the penalty spot in the 1990 final in Italy.
Brehme retired at Kaiserslautern, a club he'd represented earlier on his career and he finished his career in remarkable fashion helping them to lift the Bundesliga title. Brehme stood out for being truly ambidextrous, with his national team coach at the time, Franz Beckenbauer remarking "I have known him for 20 years and I still don't know if he is left or right footed." Brehme reportedly believed his right foot to be more accurate, but his left foot to be more powerful.
Kenny Dalglish- Scotland
"King Kenny" began his career with Glasgow Celtic where he scored prolifically and won a whole host of domestic honours before joining Liverpool for a British record fee. He would spend the rest of his career on Merseyside winning 6 league titles and 3 European Cups, with Dalglish scoring the only goal in the first of those finals against Club Brugge in 1978. In 1985 Dalglish became player-manager for Liverpool and gradually played less and less over the years, until his retirement in 1990.
Dalglish had the unenviable task of trying to fill the boots of Kevin Keegan at Liverpool, and most would agree he went on to surpass him forming a deadly partnership with Ian Rush, with Dalglish operating just behind him in the hole. Dalglish was the 1983 runner-up for the Balon D'or.
Karl-Heinze Rummenigge- Germany
Rumminegge won the European Cup in his first 2 seasons as a pro with Bayern Munich in the mid-70s. In the early 80's he established himself as one of the best strikers in the world, as his goals helped fire Bayern to Bundesliga titles. From there Rumminegge spent 3 years with Inter Milan before retiring in Switzerland. With the West Germany national team, Rumminegge won the Euros in 1980 and reached back-to-back finals in 1982 and 1986, though was on the losing side on both occasions.
Rumminegge won the Balon D'or in consecutive years in 1980 and 1981, and was the runner-up in 1979. A versatile forward he could play anywhere across the forward line, aswell as the main centre-forward he could also play as a winger due to his exceptional pace or as a second striker.

Vortrag von Dr. Bernward Anton am 19.Oktober 2023 um 19.30 Uhr: „Verblasste Mythen – Was bleibt von der „Arbeiterbewegung“ im 21. Jahrhundert?“
Seit der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts gehörte die Arbeiterbewegung zu den wichtigsten Akteuren der politischen und gesellschaftlichen Entwicklung Europas. Bis weit ins 20. Jahrhundert bot diese Bewegung ihren Anhänger:innen soziale Heimat und Sinnstiftung, ihren Gegnern diente sie als Projektionsfläche und Schreckgespenst. In der Auseinandersetzung zwischen offenen und totalitären Gesellschaften spielte die Arbeiterbewegung eine vielschichtige Rolle. Deren Analyse gehörte noch bis in die 1970er und 1980er Jahre zu den wichtigsten Themen der Geisteswissenschaften und ihrer Diskurse.

Exemplarisch für die konservative Weltsicht des Bürgertums wieder der Simplicissimus: In der holzschnittartigen Deutung der Zeitschrift steht die USPD für Umsturz und Gewalt, sie trägt dabei eindeutig „jüdische" Züge.
In den postmodernen Industriegesellschaften des beginnenden 21. Jahrhunderts ist von der „Arbeiterklasse“ und der „Arbeiterbewegung“ kaum noch die Rede, trotz des Fortbestehens von Lohnarbeit in nicht selten prekären Verhältnissen. Der Vortrag von Bernward Anton beleuchtet aus historischer Perspektive die wichtigsten Anliegen der Arbeiterbewegung und deren Bedeutung für aktuelle Debatten.

Die Ausstellung schildert die wenig bekannte Zeit zwischen der Niederschlagung der Räte und dem militaristischen Erstarken der Rechten in München und Baiern:
Adolf Hitler noch als militärischer Spitzel, der aber gut feördert wird, und alle Kräfte, die im Hintergrund mit ihrer adeligen und reichen Anti-Sozialistischen Haltung mit wirken, eine autoritäre "alte Ordnung" des Königtums noch mal fest zu halten, mit riesigen Kriegskassen und im Bemühen, die "Versailler Verträge" zu unterlaufen:
Waffenlager in Kirchenspeichern, Schützenfeste und reichlich Sold von den Arbeitgebern im "Anti-Bolschewisten-Fonds", hier mit Zylinder fett hinten in der Limousine sitzend: Der Fahrer mit Stahlhelm und die Karosse mit (verkehrtem!) Hakenkreuz - Die Arbeitgeber-Verbände hatten für 500 Mio Goldmark einen AntiBolschewistenFonds beschlossen, aus dessen Mittel die Mörder von Karl Liebknecht und Rosa Luxemburg bezahlt wurden, wohl auch die enormen Sold-Zahlungen für die Freikorps und ihre reaktionären Führer, https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibolschewistische_Liga

Die Ausstellung schildert die wenig bekannte Zeit zwischen der Niederschlagung der Räte und dem militaristischen Erstarken der Rechten in München und Baiern:
Adolf Hitler noch als militärischer Spitzel, der aber gut feördert wird, und alle Kräfte, die im Hintergrund mit ihrer adeligen und reichen Anti-Sozialistischen Haltung mit wirken, eine autoritäre "alte Ordnung" des Königtums noch mal fest zu halten, mit riesigen Kriegskassen und im Bemühen, die "Versailler Verträge" zu unterlaufen:
Waffenlager in Kirchenspeichern, Schützenfeste und reichlich Sold von den Arbeitgebern im "Anti-Bolschewisten-Fonds", hier mit Zylinder fett hinten in der Limousine sitzend: Der Fahrer mit Stahlhelm und die Karosse mit (verkehrtem!) Hakenkreuz - Die Arbeitgeber-Verbände hatten für 500 Mio Goldmark einen AntiBolschewistenFonds beschlossen, aus dessen Mittel die Mörder von Karl Liebknecht und Rosa Luxemburg bezahlt wurden, wohl auch die enormen Sold-Zahlungen für die Freikorps und ihre reaktionären Führer, https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibolschewistische_Liga

The Janome Melody 41 (formerly Janome Milady 41) sewing machine stands out thanks to its excellent build quality, a good motor, just the right amount of functionality but nothing superfluous, a few stitches and an honest price. . It just needs 2-3 finishes to be perfect in its genre. It is aimed at an amateur public looking for a robust and reliable mechanical sewing machine as well as beginners with a minimum of ambition!
The Janome brand: a guarantee of quality
To date, Janome is the largest sewing machine manufacturer in the world. The brand is however relatively discreet in Europe (where we rather know Singer, Brother, Pfaff, etc.) and it is mainly in Asia and America that it achieves its turnover. And believe me, the Europeans are missing something!
Indeed, unlike other brands whose strategy is to saturate the market with a maximum of almost identical machines at the lowest cost, Janome relies on quality with diversified models and an excellent production chain. Its factories* are also regularly rewarded for their manufacturing quality and their human team management.
* Janome's factories are located in Taiwan, Thailand and Japan, which is quite logical for a Japanese group. In addition because of globalization, almost all brands of sewing machines have moved their factories to Asia so beware of shortcuts like "it comes from Asia so the quality is bad", this is clearly not the case here 😉.
And to prove to you that it has confidence in its products, the brand offers you a five-year warranty on the parts of all its machines, including of course the Janome Milady 41 and the Janome Melody 41.
A robust machine with a somewhat short performance
The Janome Milady/Melody 41 is well built with its 85 watt motor (15 of which are reserved for lighting), its cast aluminum frame and its small metal parts (spool holders, thread guides, winder bobbin, etc.).
In the end, it weighs almost 6 kg, which confirms the presence of a sturdy and durable frame and components, but above all stabilizes it during sewing. Thus the machine does not vibrate too much, it is relatively quiet (it remains a sewing machine) and it is pleasant to use.
Only downside: the Janome 41 is only equipped with 3 feed dogs. It's little knowing that even a cheap Singer sewing machine offers 6 and that most machines have at least 5...
Among them, there are all kinds of utility stitches (straight stitch, zigzag, overlock, buttonhole, stretch, etc.) whose length, width and needle position can be manually determined.
Even if it is true that these adjustments are not essential for complete beginners, they quickly become very appreciable when you progress and for us it is a minimum for self-respecting amateurs. It is also for this reason that I do not recommend the Janome Facility 21, yet often compared to the Janome Melody / Milady 41.
More points is not necessarily useful for everyone, and for those who prefer to have the embarrassment of the choice to express their creativity same remark as before: it is necessary to consider an electronic model. For example, there is the comparably priced Brother FS-40 which offers 40 stitch programs and well over a hundred styles (I didn't count).
A beautiful beast behind an old-fashioned look
This Janome is therefore of good quality and offers some nice elements, but for me this is not the impression that it gives.
Indeed its white-gray cover, its incandescent lamp with yellow light and the name "Milady 41" (or "Melody 41" on the more recent model) written in cursive letters give me an old impression. I find it a bit ugly and a shame knowing that Janome is a good modern brand.
Strengths
The Janome brand is a guarantee of quality.
A robust and stable machine.
All functions and accessories to get started and sew at home.
Weaknesses
Only three training gifs.
A disappointing look for a modern machine.
Target audience
We recommend the Janome Melody/Milady 41 to intermediate sewers looking for a good, simple but effective work tool, and to beginners wanting a serious machine that will accompany them in their development.

Když se člověk podívá na líný tok Maršovky čili Poklekovského potoka, jak se tomuto potůčku též říká, ale zejména na jeho vodnost, nikdy bychom do něho neřekli, že dříve býval dravou říčkou, jež poháněla během své pouti rovnou několik mlýnů. Dnes se nám mohou zdát až směšná i slova obecní kroniky, která byla založena v roce 1923 a píše se v ní o tomto toku toto: "Potok ten pramení v Maršově u čís 6. Sesilován je v Libňatově četnými a stálými prameny, takže není pamětníka, aby i v nejsušších létech vyschl."
Jeden z nich stál svého času i v Libňatově. Původně však byla tato ves přiřazena mletím k mlýnu v sousedních Havlovicích a k olejně v Úpici. Zprávu o tom máme z roku 1737. Když koncem 18. století došlo k požáru roubeného stavení čp. 39 (v roce 1775 náleželo Josefu Krajákovi a roku 1785 Jakubu Krajákovi), z něhož nic nezůstalo, bylo rozhodnuto, že na jeho místě bude vybudován mlýn. Tehdy se psal rok 1790 (některé zdroje hovoří i o roce 1780) a podmínkou této stavby bylo to, že jeho vlastník musel odvádět 6 ½ korce "výmelného" za havlovický mlýn, kam předtím obec mletím patřila. V obecní kronice se objevuje rovněž zavádějící informace, že starý mlýn mohl stávat na místě čp. 48.
V roce 1794 vlastnil mlýn Antonín Pfaff (psán i jako Pfaf) a před rokem 1800 Jan Baudisch (tehdy zemřel). Roku 1805 byl uváděn jako jeho majitel Antonín Šafránek. V letech 1814-1815 byl mlýn čp. 66 přestavěn mlynářem Prouzou, ale i zde se objevují protichůdné informace, neboť se hovoří jak o zmíněné přestavbě, tak o stavbě nového mlýna v roce 1815, opět však mylně. Zůstal však nadále roubenou stavbou, což můžeme vidět v indikační skice stabilního katastru z roku 1840 od geometra 2. třídy Václava Hniličky (tehdy čp. 66 náleželo Josefu Prouzovi) a v jeho pozdější reambulaci (viz https://ags.cuzk.cz/archiv/openmap.html?typ=skicic&idrastru=HRA254018400&fbclid=IwAR3g6W46i65dPotNODeULHdK-A8hc7M6jSS8Mub#YgL6wkxHuvCUYeiKxA8). V roce 1865 náležel mlýn Janu Prouzovi. Po jeho smrti se vdova Františka Prouzová provdala roku 1870 za vižňovského mlynářského Augustina Rosenberga. V roce 1881 bylo čp. 66 v majetku Antonína Vika, přičemž tu bydlela na výměnku též Anna Prouzová. Do roku 1913 byl vlastníkem mlýna Václav Štafa, jehož smrt zaplnila stránky tehdejších novin, protože se utopil v řece Úpě a bylo podezření, že byl zavražděn. Jako příklad můžeme uvést "Lidové noviny", které 9. ledna 1913 napsaly toto:
"Zavražděn? Z Úpice se oznamuje: Dne 3. ledna t. r. odešel majitel mlýna V. Štafa z Libňatova do Úpice za obchodní záležitostí a už se domů nevrátil. Po tři dny bylo po něm pátráno občanstvem i četnictvem po celém okolí co nejúsilovněji, ale marně. Teprve v úterý po polednách byla vylovena jeho mrtvola z řeky Úpy v Havlovicích. Ačkoliv na mrtvole nešťastného nebylo nalezeno při prvé prohlídce žádných stop zřejmého násilí, přece jen všeobecně se soudí, že běží o akt vraždy úkladné. Soudí se tak z té příčiny, že Štafa měl v Úpici vyzvednouti 2200 kor., aby mohl zapraviti kupní cenu většího množství obilí. Bylo to známo mnoha lidem v okolí a poněvadž se mlynář vypravil do Úpice z rána za dne, vědělo se, že jede do města pro peníze. Na zpětné cestě však se zastavil Štafa v Havlovicích u svého švakra Kábrta, u něhož peníze uložil v uschování a poté zašel do tamního hostince »Ameriky«, kde měl rovněž cosi k vyřízení. V hostinci měl Štafa nějaký spor s několika občany. Později, večer se zdvihl a odešel. Od té doby ho nikdo nespatřil, až byla jeho mrtvola vylovena. Mrtvola byla ohledána a dopravena do umrlčí komory a nařízena soudní pitva. Štafa byl otcem čtyř nezletilých dítek a byl otcem i manželem vzorným. Požíval značné vážnosti v celém okolí, najmě mezi dělnictvem těšil se velké oblibě. Že by byl zbloudil cestou za tmy a spadl do řeky, zdá se téměř vyloučeno, neboť terrain místa, blíže něhož v řece mrtvola mlynářova byla nalezena, domněnku podobnou nepřipouští a pak mlynář šel cestou z Havlovic do Libňatova velmi často."
Během soudní pitvy však bylo zjištěno, že se utopil, a tak byl tento případ uzavřen jako neštěstí, i když po celém okolí se stejně nadále tvrdilo, že byl někým sprovozen ze světa, akorát, že mlynáře pouze do vody nějakým způsobem shodil nebo strčil a protože měl v sobě nějaký ten alkohol, nepodařilo se mu z vod Úpy zachránit. Jak se tato událost skutečně stala, to se již nikdy nedozvíme.
Roku 1923 náležel mlýn vdově Aloisii Štafové. Následně zde o rok později mlynařil její syn Václav, jenž byl na Úpicku znám jako jedna z nejvýraznějších postav tamní Národní obce fašistické. Později však mlýn náležel jeho sestře Růženě Štafové, aby jeho politické angažmá nebylo živnosti na škodu. Jeho národovectví se objevilo jako překážka hned krátce po okupaci Čech a Moravy německými vojsky. Navíc se snažil spoluobčanům pomáhat v rámci svých možností, ale vzhledem k velikosti mlýna nemohl vyjít všem vstříc. Rovněž na něj přišlo několik udání, takže si u mlýna podávaly ruce různé kontroly. Ani to však nestačilo a v roce 1941 byl provoz mlýna Růženy Štafové úředně zastaven. Téhož roku zakoupila obecní rybník. Díky jejímu bratrovi Václavovi, který měl různé známosti, bylo mletí v čp. 66 opět povoleno a v lednu 1942 se s ním opět začalo. K mlýnu tehdy byly přiděleny obce Libňatov a Maršov u Úpice. Že se stále jednalo o roubený objekt, to můžeme vidět z katastrální mapy evidenční z roku 1941.
Štafovy známosti však nedokázaly zabránit tomu, že se nad ním stahovala smyčka. 28. listopadu 1942 byl zatčen gestapem, následně odeslán do zajišťovací vazby v Hradci Králové, odkud pak putoval k pražskému soudu, který mu vyměřil trest ve výši 10 měsíců odnětí svobody za rozšiřování zpráv nepřátelských nacistickému režimu. Díky svému silnému revmatismu byl nakonec roku 1943 propuštěn z vězení. Vrátil se domů, kde poté pracoval jako mlynářský dělník. Natrvalo se zde přestalo mlet počátkem 50. let 20. století. Následně byl objekt přestavěn do zděné podoby, což je zakresleno ve vojenské topografické mapě v měřítku 1 : 5 000 z roku 1962 od Ing. J. Vlčka (avšak ve stavu z roku 1960). Dřevěný zůstal pouze hospodářský objekt na jih od něj a i to se později změnilo, neboť v roce 1962 zanikl. Dnes dům, jenž prochází postupnou obnovou, slouží k bydlení a je v majetku Zdeňky Mlčákové.
