This would be me! I had NO idea how much my old ugly Alvah would change my preferences. At night, I'm just itching to treadle especially if it has been a stressful day. Very relaxing...

Billy, do you do any Freemotion quilting using your treadle? I really prefer it to any of my e-machines now.[/quote]

I am just beginning to FMQ with my treadle and find that it is easier to control even with feed dogs up. My designs are still rather large because I can't seem to get the hang of smaller free motion, looks like a beginner 4-H project! :-D
