    Default Hi! From Church Hill, TN
    My name is Kim & I love sewing, quilting & old sewing machines. I recently acquired a treadle sewing machine & am very excited to learn to use it.

    Hi Kim. I outside of Seattle, WA. How exciting to get a treadle, some day I'll also join the treadle club but for now I'm still on the grid.

    I'm using a modern "sewing computer" these days but I've spent a lot of years sewing on a vintage machine older than I am -- I'm circa 1960

    I love all the different sewing machines. Vintage are my favorites but always wanted to learn the treadle for some reason.

    Welcome & howdy from Texas! I think a treadle machine would be so much fun to sew on.

    Many years ago when I was about 8, I learned to sew on my grandmother's treadle sewing machine. I still feel some of the excitement I felt then. Welcome from Southern California!

    Welcome Kim. I’m from Middle TN, I know about TN Quilt shop, but saw a sign recently for Heavenly Stitches on my way to VA. Would you recommend it?
