After so many years I think I have gotten use to people not spelling or even calling me by my right name. My name is Anamaria, and even at work I have been asked what do you want to be called? I always tell them Anamaria, that is my name. I have been called Ann, Maryann, Annemarie, Ana, etc. And no one gets the spelling correct, I have 4 name badges, all with a different spelling. The one name that I always makes me stop and look is "mom" out of habit. When the 3 kids were small, I even thought my name was "Mom" 
Valerie, I live in Amish country, too. My LQS sells a Janome head just like an e machine except it is for a treadle. Pfaff makes one, too. I think our Amish make their own cabinets. I was invited into a new Amish home that had a wonderful, large sewing room. The mother's older treadle was there, but so were 2 beautiful new parlor cabinets in a light finish. When she opened them for me, they held their daughters' wedding presents - new, modern machines in treadles.
Hello,
I was directed to this site as I searched for information for a vintage treadle machine. It's a Standard Treadle and I believe it to be a model no. 93-V. Anyone have any info? I most likely will use as a vintage piece, not for sewing at this time. It does have lots of attachments. etc in the drawers and it is in good condition.Thanks!! Kelly

Hi everyone, my daughter has just picked up an almost identical machine to this one but it is a model 'P' which we believe was made in 1911. It has a long bullet shuttle. Don't you just love the old advertising literature, one we read said that this was the only vibrator you need....

Miriam, I wouldn't have paid the full asking price. I'd have made an offer if I really wanted that table. I do think it would be really cute in a sewing room full of treadles!

What is the pink machine next to the Standard? A Sewmor? Do you use that machine? We need to see a photo of that machine too!

Kenneth you are right, class 15 machines have been around a very long time, even though, if you look at Singer's records they only claimed to make their Model 15 until about 1957. I don't know what the 'duplicate' machines are called? Anyone know what Singer calls those machines? Anyway, I think we have beat this horse enough. Yes, they are easy to repair, easy to maintain, a great straight stitch machine. But, there is no denying that those reproduced machines were purposely made to resemble a machine from the past!

Nancy - If I'd been a girl my mother was dead set on naming me Kennetha. <SHUDDER> I loved the uncle after whom I was named but there were plenty of times I'd wished for a different name when I was growing up - Kenny got to be a little much
