I have recently had a very intriguing request that involves my making a show quilt, or at least doing some part of the quilt (one of my blue print/line drawing quilts) using an historic vintage 1898 Singer Model 15 treadle machine. I'm thinking I could do some part of it, which would fulfill the concept the owners have in mind. I just don't know how this would work. Do any of you have experience quilting on a treadle? Is it accurate? Can you stop it easily? I have sewn on a treadle and had trouble getting it to stop, but I think maybe I didn't have the technique down, and it would be in my home for a time, so I would have time to practice first. I will tell you more about this when I can. Trust me, it's intriguing.
