I have a second question. I moved my Free treadle pictured on page 627 into the sewing room and I am trying to piece with this treadle. My problem now is that I get a perfect stitch, then the stitch wiggles, kinda bunches a couple stitches, then perfect again? I have been playing with the tension disk because I thought the top thread must be too loose, but now I think it is because the tension take up wire/spring is not working correctly? Or could this be a shuttle tension problem? I watch the needle and you can see when it is going to do a bunching type stitch because the thread kinda bunches up at the tip of the needle as the needle enters the fabric.

I love having this treadle in the sewing room. I hope I can get this straightened out so I can use it to piece with!
