its too small and it also doesn't have any holes in the back of the machine to mount onto the cabinet's hinge pins.
You need a card table meant for a Featherweight, I own such and table & I like it. They're not a rare item.
Here's a link to an ebay auction that shows what the card table looks like.

Thanks for info I am torn between wanting a feather weight or trying to find a treadle that works my gut instinct. Says go with with feather weight and forget about the treadle. But I'm still not sure which way I want to go
