Although I learned to sew on my mum's Singer treadle machine I have wondered what the attraction is for you ladies. ( Can someone explain)
But I can see the beauty of this one. Those decals are truely beautiful.

Well, it's not really an attraction--it's more like a 'sickness' :roll: :lol: and this sickness gets worse and worse because of the internet....lol. If it wasn't for the internet, I wouldn't have known about these beautiful machines and then I wouldn't have begun collecting them and then my daughter wouldn't call me a hoarder :wink: :roll: , etc, etc, etc........

I can't believe I came across this machine, I was just browsing around the thrift shop and suddenly I could hear something softly calling my name. The soft voice was coming out of this pretty little cabinet so I stopped to take a closer look, then lo and behold, it was a vintage sewing machine calling to me from inside the little cabinet. O.K. so it didn't really happen like that :shock: but almost :roll:
