I'm not the queen, but I bet ya can fit one more treadle in your sewing room.
My command center, as my husband calls it, is about 2 1/2 yds by about 1 3/4 yds and has 5 treadles, four of which have machines sitting up ready to use and the other treadle has my cutting matt and other items sitting on top. Chair sits in center. Bit of a mess right now since I have multiple projects going on.
That room looks like a lot of fun!
it does. The chair looks funny.

Miriam are you making fun of my comfy chair?!

I like my chair it swivels and rolls; plus, it's red and black.

Okay, How is this for a chair? This one sits in front of my Singer 201 which sits in my living room.

Any ideas about either of these Whites?

Metal? 625

675

Opinions on either?

I had a friend years ago swore that those old all metal White's were the best out there and would sew through anything.
