I love the look of this machine. Mine originally had a motor - but I'm going to treadle her.

I have had a White treadle base for 25years under my chopsaw.It may be time to pull it out and put it to better use!!

That is so cool! Thank you for posting the pics. I love the little light yours has... mine has an outlet for a light, but not the actual light. The case for yours is really nice too. Love the alligator look. I did find out that the machine I have was made in 1912. She still sews a perfect stitch. I sew a lot, so my "other" machine is new, huge, and does a bunch of stuff. BUT, for personality, the White machine has it! I think I may keep it on display in my sewing room. They must be made of steel or cast iron, it's so heavy!

Very pretty machine. Rodney |
