Hope I am getting this in the right section (Vintage). Went to an estate sale and what should my eyes behold? A Franklin Treadle in great shape and sewing! It was the last day of the sale, I asked the gal if she had a key to the drawers of the cabinet, she looked and said no, would I take it for half price. GEEEZZZZ, well DUH! Said I to my DH, please go bring the car (Focus) up closer, I don't want it to get wet. I am calling her Frannie the Fantastic. Went to our Amish fabric store down the road and picked up a couple new belts. Can't stop smiling! Well worth the $60.00 I paid for her. She's a shuttle bobbin and came with extras plus the manual. Don't know how old she is, but she is not afraid to work!
