Hi everyone,

I made this today- a carry case for my sewing notions. I sewed most of it on my 1917 singer treadle, then on my 1968 singer touch n sew. I made it for when i go to my friends house. Notice i made a 'built in' pin cushion.

That is really cool, Connie! Very organized. Glad to see someone else using a treadle.

Judith I LOVE the treadle. I've seemed to have take naturally to using it as well. It's a wonderful machine to use.
