Hi everyone. I am new here, and new to sewing and quilting. Just tonight we went and picked up a treadle sewing machine my mom inherited before I was born, but never received until now. I believe it to be a Richmond. I can post pictures tommorow, can't take them tonight. I was wondering if anyone knew what years of was made, how to clean it up without taking it out of the cabinet, and hope to thread it. Again I will post pictures tomorrow.
