I love my vintage machines, I have 4 singer treadles all in working condition ( 2 model 27, a model 9w, a model 66 -redeye), and 4 electric- that mostly gather dust or make some repairs when i'm in a hurry (a singer model 201-2 that's frozen and in need of cleaning, a white domestic- currently awaiting parts, a free-westinghouse that needs cleaned but runs, and a more modern brother that I honestly haven't ripped apart yet).
I love the treadles and that's why I use them for almost everything. I don't know if I'll ever buy a new machine again, the plastic parts wearing out/ jamming, just don't seem worth it. :)

I have an old free/westinghouse sewing machine in a nice cabinet that I would like to either give away or sell if there is a market for it. It does run but it hasn't been used in many years. It belonged to my 93 yr old mother in law. She doesn't remember how old it is. Does anyone have any advice on what I should do with it? Should I just donate it to local charity?
