Re: What machine are you sewing on now?
I have been using my trusted Bernina since the early 90's. However, I have my great grandmother's Singer treadle and use it at times for lots of my quiltmaking. It still sews the absolute most beautiful perfect stitches and once I get into the rhythm of the process, I can go on for hours. The leg action is great exercise that keeps your blood circulation going. I do my own paper pieced designs which are perfect for this type of machine. Then, just the nostalgia and thinking back about what my great grandmother, using this machine to sew for her family, would have been thinking. I also use this machine for making clothing for my own grandchildren. So that's what - at least 6 generations that have had clothing and quilts made with this machine!!!
