No power during the day = sewing on a treadle.
No power at nite (nuh uh, don't go there) means sewing by the light of candle or your generator. My machine is not a necessity that would need to be hooked to the generator(so says DH) but with light powered by the generator, voila!
Takes me back to watching Grams sew on hers and what a beauty it was. She let me sew once on it.
Treadle power means leg power means blood circulating and not collecting in your ankles.
Agree with lostn51. I also was born a few generations too late.
Because a thing of beauty is a joy forever.
How many more ya want? :lol:
and I don't even own one, yet. Have my eye on getting one this year. Would love one made in 55 to celebrate my 55th b-day this year. Also would like one from much earlier. We'll see what happens and how good a girl I can be. :roll: :oops:
