Vintage Sewing Machine Shop.....Come on in and sit a spell

Ya'll know what I just realized? I didn't need to buy a exercise stepper with my amazon gift card... All I need to do is master treadling instead! I wonder how many calories it burns?

It does look nice. Are you going to put in a case or a cabinet?

Hi! I'm goonberrie! newish to quilting period. I have discovered my husband's grandmother's old treadle in an old shed, and I use the term shed loosely. almost no protection to Montana's weather. do you know of any miracle workers in Montana? I would like to see about restoring it. please 'pm' me here. Thank you for any assistance.
Can you post pics of the machine? If it's not too bad, you should be able to clean it up and get it running yourself... Welcome to the mad world of antique/vintage machines! They're wonderful things to have and use!
Have Miz Pat take videos when you teach Miriam to treadle Skip!
Have been busy lately...I've been trying to teach myself to knit socks! Don't have a clue as to why I want to knit socks, but for some reason I just HAVE to do it! I'm not doing too bad...have one sock almost done. I'm super slow at it, so I MIGHT have a new pair of wool socks for next winter!
Have been helping a customer clean out his storage unit...he and his wife live in Hawaii, and she has been very ill, so their dream of a second home here has been dashed...he gifted me with a service for 12 of the Franciscan "Desert Rose" china, with just about every serving piece you can think of. The other biggie that he gifted me with was one of her half finished quilts...Double Wedding Ring, absolutely beautiful work, hope I can do it justice when I attempt to finish it! There were two completed wallhangings and a Rowenta iron and quite a lot of smaller sewing notions too...
