A kind soul posted this link on the Treadleon list, and I had to check it out. I finally made it through 99 pages of posts! (I would like to say my housework is suffering, but I put it out of it's misery long ago.) I probably know some of you from other lists, but I'm a collector (translation: hoarder) and occasional sewist. I have 150+ machines, most vintage or antique. I usually sew on a treadle or handcrank machine, whichever one I can unearth first. I'm currently making a bedding set for my granddaughter and am using my 201 in a "Big Wheel" treadle. (That's what I should be doing right now, since she's due to arrive in less than a month.) I've posted a few random photos of machines--a Singer VS 2 parlor cabinet (I'm a sucker for parlor cabinets), a Singer 320K that originally had a 220 motor which now has been replaced, and a Japanese clone that I've converted to HC. (Love the 50's Japanese machines!!
Delighted to be here, and happy to see what everyone has hidden in the cellars and rafters.
