Very nicely done. Did you do the cabinet also?

I did not refinish the cabinet. I told my friend I would get the machine running, but I wouldn't have time for the cabinet. She was thrilled just to get a running treadle as a gift. The machine was terribly dirty, inside and out, but she was basically sound. I'm glad it wasn't more challenging than it was! I sure admire the fabulous, patient restorations I see here!

Wow, she sure shined up nice, didn't she?? Lovely!

Red Eye is probably my least favorite of the Singer decals, but this one looks great.

Wonderful job, the decals are much nicer than the one I have, looks like you have a "calling" here, so go get more machines.

Amazing! You couldn't tell in the before photo that the machine even had decals! Red Eye is my favorite, but my Lucy's (yes, I named her after Lucille Ball) decals are not nearly as perfect as yours. You did a great job!

My all time "lust after" machine. Magnificent restoration !!

That is hilarious! I nearly named her "Lucy" after Lucille Ball, too! The cabinet was so plain that I couldn't do it. She needed a more "serviceable" name.
