We all have to realize that our grandmothers were "modern women" in their day and age. When they discovered new and innovative ways to do things they took advantage of them. My GM kept her treadle machine forever BUT she had a new and modern electric that she loved as well. In fact sometimes my GM enjoyed new ways of doing things more than my Mom. I think there is a place for the old tried and true methods, lots to be learned from the old ways. I also think we all need to take a look at what's coming up new and different and take from both camps!
