Treadle Sewing Machine
#11
Hi Earthwalker - look on EBay - that is where I got Queenie and most of my machines, she cost me the grand sum of $160 Aus and came with a motor and light which I pulled off and re converted her to a treadle when I restored her. Oh the belt to replace the motor - all of $10 Aus at any good sewing machine shop. Hope that helps :)

The 201K from the forties and fifties was the best treadle Singer made - smooth as silk - fairly readily available in Aus - not as pretty as the old ones. Singer 15K is another beauty - made around the twenties. Pretty machines if in good condition.

I don't know why you are looking for me but i did not do it!!!!!!
Now if you want to buy a machine, that's another story all together.
Have a good evening.

Hi Wings - you did it! Yeayyy!
Queenie is a beauty and I love the quote re the Bluebirds but I'm happy that attitudes to women have changed a little bit since the '40s! :shock: :lol:
OK, now where are the other 39 machines? :wink: :D
