loving this thread! I have a Singer 127 treadle that i am using and I have my Grannie's old Singer 99 clone. It was one of the machines made in japan and had a badge ont he front that said Royal. I turned it into a handcrank as the wiring to the motor was totally shot. I also have a White 3355 that has the left needle position. That is a bit hard to get used to but it sews beautifully. Dh is bringing me another machine home tomorrow. Its a New Home AHC (can't remember the numbers) it needs a new power cord though. I've been told that it uses a different needle and from the manual someone on a vintage sewing list told me would work the feet look completely different that anything I've used before.. Oh and my treadle is named Nellie....she's kind of tempramental sometimes. My Kenmore machine (newest) is named LillyBet and the White has not told me its name yet. Grannie's machine that is now a handcrank is named Vivian after my Grannie.
