Your Kenwood is beautiful... could it have been made by the White Co.? It looks like one they made so maybe it was badged as a Kenwood. The cabinet and the irons are so pretty.

I have one with a different name somewhere in the basement. VERY cheaply made; the two pieces (front and back) are screwed together and don't.quite.meet. Cute though.

AKA Elna #1, straight stitch only. Lightweight, open arm. All Elna machines I've used have been wonderful.

My birthday trip from DH resulted in a drive to AR. He saw me looking at the 3 treadles on CL Little Rock that someone posted. I mentioned that I was interested in the Velox. So Friday we started on this road trip to see the redbuds. And we came home with all 3 of the treadles. And found 2 boxes of old cams in a flea market. Will post pics later. DH is definitely a keeper!

I'm glad someone in this group got those machines! Please show us when you get them all cleaned up, especially the Velox! And hope you had a happy birthday...

Dh did some dickering. The Velox is missing the skinny front slide plate. And the Damascus is missing the skinny front plate, shuttle and bobbin. I think I might have the shuttle and bobbin, but those skinny plates I do not have. The Sphinx has the best decals and the Velox the best cabinet.

That cinderella is cute, it must have been made for a child's machine? Maybe, that is why it is not made so well? Very cute, though! If I saw that at an estate/yard sale I'd buy it for sure!

Tommie, what a lucky woman you are! All three treadles! Ok, I remember something about one person selling 3 treadles for $75 each, or less for all 3? That must be the deal you got! Wow! It seems around here everyone has decided they have rare treasures because the price keeps going up.

Here are the pictures of Kathie's cabinet before and after she had it re-finished!

YAY!! That was me that posted it! I noticed yesterday the ad was gone :). Glad they went to a good home.
