Treadle Machine Table Centre

I was introduced to a darling old 'Treadle' sewing machine about 7 years ago after my sister saw her on a local community notice board 'for sale'. I went & met her right away and have not really hung out with her at all in that time I have just admired her & wondered what her history is and what stories she could share with me. Recently I got the urge to do a real catch up with this old darling :) After tweaking her tension of being alone for so long, we got to know each other and became rather good friends :) I made a coffee & pulled out my box of scrappy crumb fabrics (as I do with my friends) and this old darling & I went for a real work out together. It was like no other gym that I had ever been to. LOL I decided that since my sister introduced me & this old darling "Treadle" that she could have the first item made at the first meeting. Yes, I am going to have coffee and a chat with "Treadle" again in the not too distant future as we have formed a real lasting friendship.
