I get to pick up my 1910 treadle by the end of April and I am excited as I hope it will help exercise my knee. It will have to stay up north. Has only 4 drawers.

l love it l have a longing for one for a while but they are so expensive l will keep looking l used to sit sewing on mine in England early in the morning as it was so quite to use l picked that one up in a second hand store for five pounds in 1960 Have fun and treasure it

How beautiful Looks like she's in good shape too!

Looks like Grammy's, she had arthritis. Although hers may have been an Elgin. I sat under it and pumped with my hands while she told me to go faster or slower. Then Grammy helped me learn to sew. Wish I had it just for the happy memories, but my sister in law got it - It worked great and looked wonderful. I hope yours will bring you many happy days. What a great find.

That reminds me of the one in my avatar. My favorite treadle machine. Congratulations. Yours is beautiful. For me it took a little time to get my timing right but I love it now.
