I am privileged to own the machine today! Makes me want to see if I can get it in up-and-running condition. I used to love sewing on it!

I just love the featherweight. It is along time since the treadle machine was used. Singer sure makes beautiful old machines- You can check the serial number on line and should be able to find out the age of the treadle machine. Yours is a real beauty..<br />Regards, Annaquiltmom annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976120921532056369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647971298846852786.post-47323129019773557862013-03-20T20:19:54.570-07:002013-03-20T20:19:54.570-07:00What a beautiful story, Claire!

It's gorgeous, and to have it come to you through family makes it a super treasure. I recently bought a similar machine (altered from treadle to electric) at a thrift store (I posted it on my blog) but it is in horrible shape - dust and dirt - and the tension doesn't work. What a treasure for you!

Oh darn, now I will have to re-check as the mind is failing me;-) I have been told this is the best machine for perfect straight sewing, that the stitches always look perfect. Enjoy.<br />blessings, jillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
