(really, they "worked" before, but now it spins effortlessly and always ends with the pitman arm on the low end...) http://www.treadleon.net/sewingmachi...gtreadles.html ....and thanks to everyone else too! I am extremely excited. I just named her Edith (On the list of top girls' names in 1895, Edith is number 27!) |

I love that fact that you researched a "period" name appropriate for the source. I do the same for most of my antiquities (including my 13th century German Knights spur named "Sir Heinrich's Bit") |
What a great idea. I decided to check out the most popular female names for 1889. Number 7 was Florence. Perfect name for my 1889 Singer VS2 that I posted today on the Vintage Photo thread. I think that the original decal was Cornflower so the name is appropriate as it means Blooming.
