    Wow, pretty machines! I have never used a hand crank. Is it hard to do? I am not very co-ordinated.

    Kathie, all your machines are beauties.
    The Jones really stands out.
    Her decals are eye popping.

    I love the face plate of your New Home. Wow.

    Blessings,
    Sandi

    Featherweight anyone? There's one for sale in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada. Tan Featherweight with case etc. for $360 Can. She's had it on Kijiji for a while at $450 but is ready to barter now because it's been so long.
    PM me for her email address.

    I have only made small projects on mine, ie: mug rugs, but I like using my hand crank. I have made two quilt tops with my treadle. I will probably make one soon on the hand crank too. I think they are a lot of fun to sew with!

    The 99 looks just like mine, from 1931 and is now a hand crank. Step-grands like to sew with her.

    Hand cranks take getting used to, lots easier to sew with if you have a seam guide to let the fabric ride against.
