Quiltdoctor,
I'm amazed what you have done so far with cleaning and glueing. What a difference already! Is that a base you've built just to slide a machine in while you are cleaning and restoring? Cindy The was the Wheeler Wilson 8 has a lower wheel, It had to have something to rest on or it would just roll around and not be stable at all. Texas Jan |
Name change on the 201. I was going to call her Ethel after the lady who owned her forever but have decided to call her Elaine after the lady's daughter because if she hadn't decided to sell the 201, I wouldn't have her. BTW, she sews like a dream. I'm making a miniature quilt on her for her first project. I so need a larger room for my machines. I had to put my 15-91 away to be able to use my 201 and I love them both. What's a girl to do?

Can't you put the 15-91 in another room? I have sewing machine cabinets all over the house, and ya know what? They look nice! I only bring the cabinets in that are in good shape or we have re-done so they are all nice looking pieces of furniture. I currently have 14 treadles with 10 in the house! Will you post a photo of the mini quilt when you are done? Nancy |

The stain should be here by Thursday. They shipped the wrong thing, so they had to reship it. Here is a picture of the front of the machine. It will likely have to be repainted. It has been out in the weather for at least 10 years.
When you repaint, will you stick with black and maybe decal it or will you go with a color? |
I would love to find one of these old shoe/leather machines someday! Preferably a treadle!

I am no longer getting email notices that there are replies. That makes it hard to figure out where to start reading. Anyone else know what to do about that??

Glenn, I too have made some of the spool pin covers. I gave some away the other day and she liked them.
