I did it! I bought a 1910 Singer Red Eye treadle machine. I love her! She is in mint condish and runs like a top. I can do the treadle thing, not fast and not smooth but I'll get there. I have wanted one for years and now she is here.... She and I are going to have fun together. The younger girls can wait awhile.

Beautiful machine! I love the old treadles. Don't you wish she could talk, I'm always curious about their owners. It appears her owner was very proud of her too and took very good care of her.
