Sulabug, What a lovely gift!!! I am thrilled for you. Please post a picture of your work when you get rolling on it. How absolutly wonderful. I have wanted a treadle machine for many years. It is so beautiful!!! :thumbup: Where did you find it? Did your Dh find it? If so, he sure did know what you were looking for. That is certainly a sweet gift. Oh I am just tickled for you!!! :-D

wow!! Awesome. I think it`s exactly the same as mine. I got mine from the original owner about 10 years ago. Only thing I didn`t do was ask her the date of it. Is there a way to know?

Cheryl, that is gorgeous, looks like it is in such good shape too. Yes, sounds like your hubby is a keeper! Merry Christmas!

You are such a gracious lady, Sulabug.

I'm so glad you got such a wonderful present!

You're going to love your new machine. I have a 1947

Featherweight and it's the greatest!!!

Did you know that Janome is selling a treadle machine???

There are a couple of sewing machine fellows/experts on the board somewhere ... if I remember correctly, the date of the machine is actually contained within the model numbers, but I don't remember exactly how that was configured, so if you are really curious, go ahead and start a thread about your treadle and its number, and you will find them <wave>

Wow..Sulabug what a beautiful gift that your sweet Husband
gave you , you so deserved it and I can't wait to see what you will make with it.Congrats to you and Merry Christmas
