What a beautiful Red Eye! You know that you can turn it back into a treadle very easily, right? I love mine. I hope your's brings you as much happiness and sews as pretty as mine does.

It looks like the one I have. Bought it for $15 at a flea market in 1968 in San Jose. It is a 1919 Singer...........

Y'all have said such kind things -- and I am very blessed!
