Thanks Billy,
But HELP!!!
I threaded my machine. I have the top thread and the bobbin thread according to the book. The threads are not catching, they are not sewing together. What is wrong???
Okay Billy, dummy me. I had the needle in wrong. oops. I put the needle in like I would on my modern machine. Needle hole front to back. It actually gets threaded from the side.
Hey haven't sewn on this type of machine since I was a young girl. I have adjusted the thread tension and finally got a decent stitch.
All in all I am having a lot fun with this. Brings back a lot of memories. I met a lady in the sewing machine shop this evening that stated that she sews on her treadle. I will keep cleaning and post pics sometime next week maybe. Again thanks for all of your help. Oh, yeah can I buy veneer at Lowes or Home Depot?
Thanks
