I have two antique treddle machines. One belonged to my Great Grandmother, and the other to my Grandmother. Both were quilters and I have some of their quilts. I have never sewn on them, but have them as decor for my home. The problem is I have no one to pass them on to in my family. My mother told me so much history about what my Grandmother had to do during the depression to get her machine that I can't bear the fact that no one in the family wants to take them to pass them down. I really need to get my nieces interested in them since I have to downsize and will be moving to Hawaii. I am afraid the humidity there would not be good for them, and I really can't afford to ship them. I am really torn about what I am going to do!
