I didn't know where to post, this is not sales, question or anything hands on practical. A rather rare Husqvarna treadle turned up on an action site here, probably not very rare, but not the most common. It has a transverse shuttle, the common ones are either VS  or 15 derivatives (CB). The rare part is mostly the nice condition, flowery decals, wood, irons and all. It's too far from me to get it, but it is nice.

And looks as if it has been cared for.

I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Perhaps just as well it's not nearer, hard to resist something as lovely as that I would think.
Hopefully back more regularly! Ballroom sewing may be permanently paused but bag making is the current focus.

The Husqvarna is in Oslo, and transport is too cumbersome. I've been looking at this machine too, the only thing preventing me from getting it it's a treadle, and transport needs to be sorted out too. This is the sort of zigzag machine I have been looking at.
