We hope everyone had a happy and safe Christmas and wishing all our new friends a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR! Wonder how many machines will be saved this new year?

I could not get the tenson right on my 221 FW and told it to a sewing repair man to look it over and I felt so dumb I had the needle in backward he said and the belt was loose. I played all day with it tryi ng to get the tension right. o well learnt something again he said I have a nice little machine and now i just love it.

Happy New Year, everyone! I haven't been on for a very long time. Just too many things going on in my life to keep up. Hope everyone here is having a good time with their new toys. Despite the fact that I already have too many machines in my life, I bought myself a Christmas Treadle, a 3/4 Singer that holds a drop-in case. Needs work, but had to have it!

What a pretty little machine, Miz Johnny. I do love the simple treadles. I'm sure you'll have her spiffed up in no time.... and welcome back.

I am pretty sure I already know what Pat said. My husband is less than enthusiastic about my latest purchase as well--especially since I need to bring home the last of my storage unit treasures--an industrial treadle base for a way cool Singer that is now languishing away in the garage. Don't know where I'll put it, but it has to go somewhere!
