Sometimes it is fun to dream of what to do with items from CLs. IF I had a large home, one room would be a Victorian room with numerous old lady treadles and a sofa.
Another room would be the Vintage room with the electric sewing machines from the 50s and 60s, just haven't found the right furniture for that room yet. But here is a sofa that I found for the room with the treadles. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/atq/2281008065.html |
I have enjoyed all the posts and pictures of all the machines. Thanks for sharing your photos!

she has beautiful decals, at least what u can see of them under the grime. I wish i were closer, i ll bet she will be beautiful when someone cleans her up. I tend to go for the, less than pristine, machines. usually cheeper and the rescue feels good. You guys ARE definately enablers, like I need any help, at all, with that! cant wait for warmer weather so can do some serious cleaning on my acquisitions. Itmt i am working on a room to use them all in. thanks all for sharing.
