Thanks for that tip. (I have a treadle to clean up). So glad there are still people out there that care about old machines. I learned to sew on my moms treadle.

Good job.<br />I would love a treadle. I think it takes sewing back to an organic level, but with the excitement an early owner of the machine would have had at being able to get so much more accomplished than they could by hand. Maybe that makes no sense. : )Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-39094273012853499052012-11-20T10:16:14.107-05:002012-11-20T10:16:14.107-05:00I'm so glad you are enjoying your treadle sewi...I'm so glad you are enjoying your treadle sewing!
