I found an ATQ Wheeler & Wilson Treadle Sewing Machine&Cab ` (8641598) on the Goodwill.com auction site. I do not know enough about them to determine the model number. I wish I lived closer but no such luck. It is local pick-up only. If anyone here lives close enough you might be interested. I think the number in parenthesis is the item number.

My DH got into collecting older sewing machines for a while. Now he is into another collectible that does not take up as much room. He had them stashed everywhere. I suppose that's why I still browse old sewing machines on almost every auction site I find.

She sews beautifully! I don't know anything about that spoon that was posted. Sorry. :-)
Maybe it was part of a show give-away?
Still no decision on the name.
Interestingly, I was in SFO a few weeks ago and there was a Sewing Display with lots of antique sewing machines, quilts, patterns, everything sewing. Not a single machine there even compared to the condition of my beauty. Actually, my featherweight was nicer than the one displayed (and mine has use wear on the decals big time).
