The guy called today and said my treadle is ready to be picked up and he said it was sewing like a breeze. I am so excited about getting it and sewing on if for the first time in about 40 some odd years.

How much fun will that be - sewing on it again! I learned to sew on a treadle and electric. Hmmm I wonder if it is anything like riding a bike? Do you forget how to sew on one or do you just jump right in and remember how to do it?

I'm doing the happy dance too about my "new machine". I can pick up my 1947 Singer 201-3 tomorrow. I took it in to get re-wired as the cords were cracked, fraying and breaking in spots. As I didn`t want shocks, I felt it was better to get it re-wired, cleaned and checked before starting to stitch. My repair lady is charging me $70 which I think is a resonable price to avoid a bad surprise.
