Ahh!! I still have my mother's old sewing machine. It was one of those treadle kinds and I loved to sew with it. There is no one here now who can repair it though. I am sure it is still working even though it could be fixed. The leather cord that goes on the big wheel is broken. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K.

Such a precious gem of a haiku like the little pin cushion among the spools of thread and scraps of cloth! This brought a big smile to my face! Thank you!!!
