DH surprised me w this Viking T50. I temp stored the treadle machine to make room for the new sewing/embroidery machine. I love my treadle machines (own 4 beauties) but I have to admit, state of the art has its place of honor as well in my book.

The awesome sturdy vintage iron base cabinet has a lift side panel held by a mobile left hand iron base as well.. This perfectly accomodates room and support for the embroidery unit.

Turned out an ideal cabinet for my new addition.

Enjoy your new machine. The new machines have a lot to going for them.

nice hubby. enjoy your new machine

have fun with the new one

I love your treadle cabinet and also love your new machine. I hope you have a lot of good times with it!

Gasp! Shock! Blasphemous! Lol, I am just kidding! What a creative and beautiful way to use your "old" for the new.

Thank u all. My sewing area is limited..thus it was the practucal thing to do. Pleased w the look and function

That's cool - Probably two centuries represented.

How I wish I still had my great-grandma's treddle sewing machine. I would take your idea and sew with it! Great!
