    Wow! I have my great grandmother's treadle and I haven't opened it up in ages! I have her 'next' machine and cabinet. I took the machine out and put my Elna in it years ago. I really ought to get them both out and look at them!

    You should -it's kind of fun to see what you have! My mom is going to use my old Singer for mending (it's in her room), so it will get used after all these years of being closed up and wondering when we'd open the top and say "Hello!"

    Wow I haven't seen a treadle machine in years. I made my first quilt on one. It looks great.

    We may start a trend - unearthing the old reliable machines that were replaced with all the new fangled ones! My mom said they came out with electric sewing machines the year she was born - 1925.
