I still think you need a treadle machine for all those no power days....... :D

I told everyone I know that I aimed my fans toward the storm. lol

You going to send me a treadle? :) :)

I love mine to much to part with her! Sorry, but I see them from time to time in antique shops and at the flea market. Can't wait to see what you get when you get off that pebble....... :wink:

I would LOVE to get my hands on a treadle. There is a lady who works at Ben Franklins. Her mom has one. I had asked her about selling it, but her mom won't. She doesn't understand why. She says it just sits in the house and collects dust. UGH!

Glad to see that your fans worked Terri! Haven't been on much the last week or so & almost missed this thread altogether...
I know you're as prepared as you can be, but always remember you have all of our "quilting auntie (& uncle)" arms around you & Courtney & the kitties too!

I've been hearing about the downgrade of the storm here on the news and have been thinking of you!:)Like us one year...we cleaned out our woods...they looked great..then the ice storm hit...that has been 4 yrs ago and what hit the ground still sits!!:)I picked up a treadle this past summer for $50! In great shape too...all it needed was a good cleaning, oil and someone to get all the kitchen grease off of it!!:)I got mine too for when the power goes out!:)You will find one too Teri!! This treadle started out at 150!:)People think they are worth a gem but, there really is too many still existing for people like us that want more then a pretty:)Stay dry!! And, best of all...stay in and sew!! You need a tsunami quilt now! Skeat

When I get back to the states, I will definitely be looking for a treadle. It's been on my list of wants for years.

Well, blue skies are very pretty today. Hoping it stays that way.
