Nancy,
The 31-15 and the 31-20 are the same machine except for the bobbin size and related area.
I'll look for a treadle plate, but I don't think I have one.

Cathy, I am so glad to hear you talk about the motors on the 31-15's, although, my 31-15 doesn't have a motor, but my 31-20 does. I hope that applies to the 31-20 as well? I haven't had time to clean up either machine because inbetween rain storms, I have been trying to get my annuals all planted and my yard weeded! I haven't even tried to run the 31-20 to see what it does - smoke - don't know yet? I'd really like to convert the 31's back to treadles, but someone lost the pedal on their treadle table when they added the motor! Do you have a pedal that would fit the 31 treadle - I think it is wider than your normal pedal?

My cabinet came without hinge pins or the drip pan; it seemed kinda odd that those things were missing.
My 237 just dropped in to the treadle, once my son made a new drip pan; I don't know if it would've fit otherwise.
The the drip pan made was deeper to accommodate the longer legs in the 237's casting. It treadles so smoothly, kinda nice to have a zig zag treadle.

Jackie, those are really nice machines! The 328 reminds me of a Rocketeer! You were lucky to get the case for the 328 - but, does the case smell yucky? Sometime those cases just reek! I'd sure have picked up both those machines! Very nice LaVincendora decals on the 128 too!

Sounds like intervention time if you can't even remember the color of the machine or what you paid for it.
Slowly say: MY name is __________ and I haven't bought a machine today. But it's still early so help me avoid the temptation. Failing that, let the machine be reasonably priced.

Judy, I am with you on the 301! I could be like Candace is with those 301's - get all the colors! I am piecing a Smokey River quilt top with the 301 right now and loving it, even though, I had to rip 24 block sections out because I placed the colors wrong! Oh well, I get to redo the blocks with the 301!
Anyway, what are 10 machines? I have 50 + now and holding! I just had to make a sewing machine museum in one of my cargo units!

If you find mitred corners tricky when binding a quilt, this method may be the answer for you. No fancy gadgets needed - just hairgrips and an unpicker on a new video by Muv - grab some tea
