We should have just bought one for them. But, the machine was gone. So, I bought a treadle at antique store, and I pretend it's Gram's. I fiqure it must have belonged to someone's grandma, so I'm giving it the home it was looking for!
thats a good idea to buy another gmas treadle. i'll look in that direction on freecycle too
thanks for the idea
