I prefer to treadle.
Geeze, Monica I know what you mean going from treadling to electric! I was in a Mystery class Sunday all day with the pedal to the medal going on all 10 machines there! It was crazy! I came home with most of the clues done because I was going with the flow - pedal to the metal using my 301. Now, I am enlarging the quilt top - making extra blocks - using my 319w in treadle - much more relaxing way to sew!
