I also love the Two Spool Machine; but pardon my ignorance - is the 'Two Spool" a name of the machine or does 'Two Spool' mean something?
And, thank you for answering my question about the stitch regulator on the 15-88 treadle. I kept trying to move that stitch regulator to a different stitch to see if my stitiches improved -- nothing changed! Now I see why! It is my treadling and hand movement that has to get better! That's ok, I am enjoying the practice -- treadling is so much fun! The only problem is that my legs get very tired and ache! I thought I was in good shape, but those ladies and guys before me were in much better shape if they sewed much! Tell you what . . . . if everyone spent some time everyday treadling they wouldn't need a treadmill, stationary bike, or any of that stuff!
