My 66-1 Louts is fun to sew with, but my all time favorite is the 201 treadle. Mr. Two Spools is wonderful, but he doesn't purr like the 201, more like a constant gallop. The 66 is in-between those two, she purrs just a bit louder than the 201.[/quote]
I love my Singer 201-4(now a treadle), its the quietest treadle I own. I do think the 201 spoiled me, I've tried my
New Home VS and I don't like the tick-tick it makes. Apparently its normal, just gets on my nerves. :( Its been repainted, the machine was a mess, I didn't do the repaint; bought it cuz its purple. :-D
