Really pretty! My White FR was still in it's treadle cabinet - it had been electrified but I ripped that puppy off as soon as I got it home and put a belt on her. She's much happier as a treadle - just as she was meant to be! Have fun sneaking the treadle into the house!
Well, this Saturday I am going to go pick up a treadle cabinet for my 66-1 that came with a motor. I know I can't sneak it in...I don't have that big of a house!! LOL I think DH already knows the machine is there, although I haven't exactly shown it to him, and he hasn't mentioned it. But the case is sitting on the floor in the sewing room, and he goes in and out of there all the time. But....he's really not very observant (his own admission!! :-)), so maybe he hasn't really noticed it!! LOL We'll have to see!!! :-) Can't wait to get my Little Lotus into her treadle.
