Default I've lost my mind, but at least the dust is off of the vintage iron

Hello again people, it has been 2 or maybe 3 years since I was active here but I just took on a project I thought you all might get a kick out of laughing at my pain. I am no seamstress, I like old machine and kinda like restoring them. I have posted some pictures of my 128's and a 27 built in the year 1900. I also posted a picture of my Black 306w that I swap in and out of the treadle base for the 27. I have stitched with all of my machines though never really made anything.. well this winter I became medically retired and decided that I was making my wife some PJ pants for Xmas. that went pretty well, so when my daughter approached me about making a "Princess" dress I thought Sure... how hard can it be?

this is what I have taken on and the machine I use, just a warning this is NOT what a DIY dad should be attempting to learn sewing basics on.

Wish me Luck, I am going to need it.
