    Wow Miz Johnny -- I love that machine! I am not sure which Eldredge he has for sale. The guy knows nothing about it except his friends moved and left it in his garage a few years ago. He sent me a picture by phone so it is not real clear. I am going to go look at it tomorrow!

    Are you asking about the e-bay Eldredge for sale? When you get in e-bay do a search for "sewing machines eldredge" in "all categories" and it will bring up the eldredge stuff. The machine they have for $115 is nothing like the one Miz Johnny has or the one I am going to look at tomorrow.

    Neither of those are mine!! Though I do have either the B Eldredge or it's National clone in pieces in my basement, and somewhere down there I also have an Eldredge B (Windsor B) electric. Now do you all understand what this addiction can do to you?? I need to lose about 75 machines to make my home livable again!!

    Pretty--wonder if it's a 15-30 or a 115? The machine itself has well-worn decals (Tiffany), though.

Started a new quilt (NY beauty - paper peiced) and it's taking all my extra time : )

    Judy, I tried to send pics of the attachments but my pc is acting slow I will try in the morning to send them Glenn
    Thank you Glenn.

    Wow! What a neat machine you have then! I can't wait to see the Eldredge treadle today. I can tell it has ornate decals from the picture on my phone, but that is all! He took the picture from too far away to tell what shape the machine is in, but the guy told me it is in immaculate shape! I will see!

    BZ Quilting, do you know the age of your machine or how to find that information out?
