What a great surprise for you to come home to!!!! And how very thoughtful of you hubby to be so kind.

I learned on a treadle and just loved it. Back (in those days) that was all we had for a machine but we thought we were so special to have any at all.

Enjoy and thanks for sharing.

Well she's a beauty, and Happy Birthday! Isn't it great that our significant others can always find just the perfect gift if they just focus on our quilting addiction!
