I'm so happy for you! I think it is way cool to be able to treadle these machines since they too were designed to be treadled.

Wouldn't matter to me if it was a Singer or not! I'd be buying it!!

Charlee, that is one beautiful machine. I too would like to have it. I don't understand how one can sew on a handcrank and hold the garment that you are sewing.

I don't even want to touch this one... my mind is thinking of stuff that only CA hippies would think of using in a cake. Oh, wait, she says it's a PA Dutch cake recipe. Then it must be safe to eat. I once made Bird Seed Cake that was very good. :)

Everything you ever wanted to know about a 401...403...right here: http://blog.sew-classic.com/2008/10/...ne-review.aspx


There is a difference between the 401A and the 401G. The 401G, made in Germany, can be treadled! :D

Wow! Thanks for the link - great info! I'm loving this machine more and more!
