One of my Singers. It's the latest addition. It is motorized, but it will run on DC as well as AC.

I learned to sew on a treadle type. I don't know how many I've repaired over the years. My last ex-wife collected them.

I made a coverlet/quilt thing out of my old military uniforms with one of the sewing machines.

Last Christmas, I made place mats for Miss I’m-in-College-and-Have-Stupid-Parents from her daddy’s uniforms and other memory-type fabrics. I thought they turned out very nice. I was wrong. Lead balloon.

You have what’s called a “Featherweight”. They are very popular with quilters.
