I think you can get one from a sewing machine shop or ebay but I think if it were me, I would do a bit of research on line and in the vintage sewing machine shop here on this board. There is a search feature at the top of the page.

That is super cool. Not only is it an awesome machine but it has family importance as well. I do hope you will have someone in your family to pass it along to as well. Enjoy

Thank you so much all. Does anyone have any idea how old she is? I am 75 (as of yesterday) and my grandma had this before I was born, I'm sure.

I would LOVE to have a Parlor cabinet treadle. What a lucky girl and it was Grandma's too. Enjoy her. She will serve you well.
