Cool Old Meets New

We had the cabinet for an old treadle that was in very bad condition, so my DH removed the old cabinet & made a new top out of oak. Isn't it beautiful. I have it sitting in my dining room & we use it during family dinners.

Very, very nice! I've never seen a Singer base like that on.
I have the base to my "Mam Maw's" old Singer treadle. The top has 'bit the dust', so I (it is heavy) took it to a car wash, power washed it & sprayed it black. Now have it in my sewing room with long board on top for cutting & pressing...

I forget which machine was on it because I have a few but isn't it great to be able to re-purpose these "beauties".
