Meet my new friend. Her name is Belinda.
We are still getting to know each other. Belinda needs a bit of TLC.
But her handle cranks and her needle goes up and down. She has spare bobbins and a few interesting looking feet.
Shortly she'll go off and meet the nice sewing machine doctor. I've promised her it won't hurt a bit and she'll feel good as new when she comes home (finger's crossed).
Isn't she a darling?
LOVELY!! I hope you enjoy it! I like to think one of these will cross my path someday too.
ReplyDeleteYes she is a darling!!! Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I have a similar machine ( a family heirloom) but it's a Singer. Hope you find someone good to fix her up, my experience wasn't good - the original foot got 'lost' and the case was damaged during servicing...was fixed up for me all free of charge but I was disappointed all the same.
ReplyDeleteYou are so luck to have it in the original case.The one I have as bought for my Daughter when she was about 5yr as she wanted a toy machine. I have since taken the machine to Craft Fair to demonstrate on. It had a great interest shown.
ReplyDeleteoh I love it! I had a treadle when I lived in Wellington. (Over 20 years ago) Sadly, I no longer have it as we got "rid off" what we couldn't fit in the car.
ReplyDeleteOh wow - what a treasure! Wishing her a happy visit at the Drs and you both many happy times together :-)
ReplyDeleteReally neat! A decent treadle machine would be my wish but this would be good too.
ReplyDeleteI just posted off my red square and hope you like it when you see it :)
