Here are some pictures why I have had the most fun I have had sewing. I converted a Bernina Mechanical sewing machine to Treadle power. That is right, Just like the local Amish do, here in Ohio. The cabinet is Cherry, and the Top is Maple, and the mechanical stuff, is made by some Mennonite folks in Pennsylvania. It slows down the process, but is very rewarding and anyway I am not in any hurry. It suits my style.
I hope you enjoy them.
