    Now that its' the right side up I can see the model number too. You have to let us know how it runs and stitches. I have been watching these old cast iron Berninas for a couple of years now, they don't turn up as often as singers. A very lucky find :- )

    What a beauty. I have never seen one like that, but I rarely see old Bernina's. Very nice. Lucky you.

    I have never ever seen an old Bernina before and when the lady said she only wanted 20 Euros for it I ran to fetch my SUV before anyone else got it! Here is another upside down (sorry) photo of the whole thing, cabinet and all... I think I have seen the cabinet with a Singer on it before though as it looks like a familiar design to me.

    It's a Bernina KL 114 treadle. What a great find! I've never seen one up close, and don't know anything else about it. But it's got to be an awesome addition to your collection.

    I just save the pic, and then click on it and it goes into my photo editing mode, then I rotate it and resize it. I have windows 7 so I have a photo editing program that came with it that is fairly easy to use.. It's easier for me to do than explain it...

    What a beautiful find. Looks like she was well taken care of or maybe not used very much. The cabinet is awesome too !! Lucky you.

    I sure hope it runs as well as my Bernina. Mine is from about 2008 but it's fantastic. Yours is a beauty.
