I refuse to feel bad but I have to stop this collecting now because I have run out of room and I only have 6 (3 in cabinets) machines. Two are treadles. I have to have them all in my sewing room and I can't squeeze another one in and still be able to sew. There is a garage sale today with an old Singer treadle advertised in a "beautiful, fancy oak cabinet" and the asking price is $50. I KNOW if I go I WILL buy if the machine is usable .... hubby kindly stated last night that it simply won't fit and I woke up several times during the night thinking "well then, I just won't go". Oh me ------ such a problem. I have 2 1/2 hours to dwell on this and I know you all would tell me to go ..............wouldn't you?
