Oh, and you aren't a Scrooge!!! Not in my book anyway.

Guess what followed me home today? A crinkle finish Singer 66-18 in a cabinet w/the stool all for $20, Serial #
AG661233.
It just needs cleaning and oiling, I may drop it into my trapezoid cabinet or possibly do a motorectomy and put a spoked hand wheel on it. It runs very nicely too, the wiring is in good shape. The veneer on the cabinet needs a bit of work though.

I love the quilt and I think it is just lovely!! Did you do it on a treadle Nancy?
Lots of us are busy with the Christmas rush but the shop is nice and warm with Egg Nog and Christmas cookies for everyone. And there is some hot Buttered Rum if you want!

I just brought home a very old lady. I haven't had time to look anything up, but she's no featherweight - the little bugger weighs 30 pounds. She has a shuttle instead of a bobbin. I'm not sure I've ever seen one prior to today.

Hey everybody - I just posted some parts pictures on Main under "What Parts do I have?" - I really wanted it to be here. Can you look at my post & see what I have? Especially Billy.

Nancy, your quilt is beautiful. I love the bright colors and pattern. Is this one of those mystery quilts or the turning 20 again quilt patterns?
I like your quilting design too.

Anyway, you guys are very inspiring! I am now piecing on the treadle and thread playing on the treadle, but not quilting big quilts!
