Oh Miriam, I am so sorry about your MIL! Please give Phil a hug for me, have him hug you, and let me know if I can help in anyway?

We can't find MIL. The whole thing is rather raw.

Hello! I'd love to join!! My newest machine is from 1972/73 and the oldest is from 1916 (so far). I have a passion for the Japanese clones, and own 4. There are 2 converted hand cranks here as well as 2 treadles, and other machines that needed saving from the scrap heap and they all found a home here. I have manuals for most of the machines, and some I have scanned into PDF if someone needs them. New isn't always better! Carol V. from Pa.
Hi Carol! Sounds like you have a nice herd!

Ok between Glenn's drawers and Miriam's legs what is this board coming to? Thanks for the laugh, I needed that just now! I have decided not to go and get the Pfaff tomorrow. They still have it, but it is a 4 hour round trip for us. With gas prices like they are, the price of the treadle just goes up. I'd have gone, but I just found out that Mowgli, our little tiny Chihuahua does have to have surgery on his femur/hip on Friday - so it is a good thing we haven't gone after the treadle yet! I don't need to spend money on another machine until I find out how bad Mowgli's surgery is going to set us back! Maybe, I can talk DH into letting me have the Viking - much shorter drive - and cheaper! I think it is really cute anyway!
