I have a 201-2 that "buzzed" me. It is my mother's machine she recently gifted me due to her failing eye sight. It makes me appreciate my treadles much more. 😅

Awesome save!! My favorite treadle is my RAF 15. I had been wanting one for a long time when I came across it at a local antique shop last year. The stitches are impeccable.

Question Embroidering with Vintage Machines?

Does anyone use their VSM for embroidery? I have a 15-91 I'd like to use, but I cannot find any sites or tutorials for machine embroidery with VSM. I'm not quite sure how to search it honestly. 😅

Cool Little Green Machine

If all goes well, I'll be adding a GE Sewhandy mini-green machine to my collection! A member of my quilt guild has it and is asking $40.00 for it. She's supposed to bring it to the meeting today....

Well, I certainly will not be buying anymore machines from Shopgoodwill.com. I have grown very leery of online auctions as it is. I should have known better. Oh, well...I did find that beautiful RAF...

No, it isn't the wooden base, nor a metal piece broken. It is a piece of the iron base underneath the machine that is busted off. I figure it was donated that way to Goodwill, or possibly it could...

Also, don't forget to oil and clean the treadle irons as well. That's just as important! Good luck!! :)
