Lace Making on a Vintage Straight Stitch Treadle Sewing Machine
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ก.ย. 2015
- Learn how to embroidery and make lace on a vintage straight stitch treadle sewing machine. This is the machine our grandmothers and our great grandmothers created beautiful embroidery. Quiet, peaceful and no computerized machines or electricity required! All you need is a treadle machine and your creativity to create amazing embroidery art!
There is no greater learning experience than watching a master at work. Thank you.
I recently got a 1928 Singer treadle machine given to me for helping take care of a grandmother to 3 really great lady and gents. I am amazed that fabric can be created like this with this machine. I cannot wait to get mine going. You are a very talented lady.
Greetings from the Czech Republic, madam. I got a sewing machine for Christmas and thought I would only use it for things like shortening the jeans. But to my surprise, it is also an embroidery machine so I started looking up some tutorials. And then I found you. I am so hooked that I keep on watching your videos and ideas and also coming up with my own. Thank you so much for posting these videos. You are so gifted and special. Wishing you kilometres of non tearing threads and strong eyes.
love love this.
Beautiful thanks four sharing❤❤❤
This is So Good! It reminds me of watching a spider spinning its web. The 'manual' zigzag stitching is awesome! Treadle and hand crank sewing machines are so wonderful for the necessary accurate and intricate stitching that a project like this requires! If you don't have a treadle or hand crank sewing machine, you are missing out on one of the truly 'soul-soothing 'ways of sewing!
I just started embroidery on a standard singer sewing machine and if it was not for watching you do it I would have given up but you helped me and I just finished two poodles on a bath robe and I cannot believe how well they came out! wow just wow I'm hooked! Thank you for posting this you gave me the courage to do this! Thank You so much!
How wonderful! I am so glad that you are hooked! it is very fun and so fulfilling knowing that you did it and not a machine! Have fun!
Complete magic. And I do embroidery both by machine and by hand. I must try this on my treadle.
Beautiful work! Good tutorial. Thank you.
You are so very talented. Craftsmanship like this is very hard to find in todays world. Thank you for sharing.
Ms. Marilyn!!! Oh my!!! How beautiful! I'm getting my mother-in-law's treadle sewing machine working...and learning how to use it. You'd never guess, my husband, who apparently watched his mother more than anyone suspected, is teaching me. lol I so want to do embroidery and this lace making on my machine. Thank you so very much for your video. I just never knew this could even be done.
+Bonnie Hyden ..I actually just learned how to use a vintage machine like this a little over a year ago and I have so much fun with it! I am just getting another video ready to post on some more fun stuff you can do with your treadle! Have fun learning and if I can help in anyway let me know...Be sure to watch my other video on getting your machine ready for embroidery. I also have a Facebook group that has people from all over the world posting videos of their amazing work......"Classic Sewing Machine Embroidery Artists"....You would love looking at their work!
thank you very much, Marilyn! I've already watched the getting ready video. I found your channel and started devouring your videos. Alas, I had an appointment and had to leave it. I'll check out your FB group, too. I still need to get my machine going: just a little more and I'll be done. Again, thank you for your videos, m'am. They're fantastic!
+Bonnie Hyden You are so Welcome Bonnie! I am glad you find the videos helpful.....just getting ready to post another video.....my favorite so far I believe! I am still learning so much fun stuff to do with the treadle!
LThanks a lot, your n experience shows on your hands, may such people have long happy n healthy life
Ohhh my you are so clever I am mesmerised by your talent 🥳🥳
thank you so much for sharing. It has shown me how to go beyond my basic embroidery skills. I am looking forward to trying this in the future. Looks like my grandmothers crocheted doilies. Love it!
Watching you sew is like watching magic. Thank you so much. Your videos truly are a joy.
+Chazz .I am so glad that you enjoy the videos! I love sewing in almost all forms!
Marilyn Lee com qual linha você faz o rechilieu e a mesma do bordado
Lindo maravilhoso
Beautiful craftsmanship! Thank you so much for sharing! I hope someone in your family is following in your footsteps? Your embroidery is just brilliant & a work of art!
It is truly amazing to watch you work. Such gentleness and grace as you work your way around. Thank you for sharing them. You are a remarkable and talented lady. Cheers.
I'm in my 60s, in the younger group of 12 kids.My Mom used a treadle for clothes and quilts,she never attempted to do the work that you can using a treadle.
Amazing.
Thank you! Treadles were the main stay years ago and not all treadlers even realized that work like this could be done on one!
I popped over here after seeing your post on Facebook. You do very lovely work!
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you for sharing!

Incredible piece of art Marilyn ma'am!
Your work is very inspiring. I just bought a machine head like yours and got a free treadle. Can't wait to get to treadling!
Missed your sweet voice. Lovely work. God Bless YOU!
Por sus manos se puede ver que es una persona mayor es un hermoso trabajo no entiendo porque hay personas que le pon. Mal cuando debería felicitar a esa abuelita
I am in awe of your skill. Thank you for sharing
I am amazed, I have never seen such intricate work and the skill/talent to do it. WOW! It's just beautiful.
+Heather Demers Thank you Helen! I am glad you enjoyed watching it!
excellent ma'am!!!
I will try this.wonderful video . thank you marilyn for doing this tutorial. it is very calming to watch.
+Shan Bartholomew Thank you! It is not only calming to watch but exceptionally calming to do! I hope you do try it!!!
Grand master at work. Thank you for an inspiring piece.
Thank you for sharing this, it's so beautiful and inspiring
This has just GOT to be some kind of camera trickery!
No it isn't! It is for real!
This is Beautiful! Thank you.
I am amazed. Beautiful, beautiful work!
Amazing, amazing, amazing! Such intricate work and so relaxing to watch. Thank you for sharing this art form!
Amazing work!!! I keep on saying that I will use my treadle to learn your techniques... Time time time :-) thank you for sharing your beautiful work.
+Cecilia Alva ,,,You are so welcome! I understand the time thing! There just isn't enough of it! Once you do get time although you will love embroidering with your treadle!
+Marilyn Lee Dear Marilyn, can you share (if possible) what threads you work with? I have tried a few and they keep on breaking so often. Maybe my speed is not the most convenient. Thanks in a advance and looking forward to seeing more amazing videos :-)
+Cecilia Alva ..........I use mostly Isacord and Floriani.......some Sulky....all embroidery thread. I'm not sure why your thread keeps breaking.......Are your tensions set correctly? Try loosening up your top tension and also what size needle are you using? That will make a difference................What sort of machine are you using? All of these things will make a difference.............
+Marilyn Lee thank you for the tip. I will try other thread brands and see how well they perform. I think for me speed is a factor for breaking my thread. I just love watching your videos. You are a true artist :-)
+Marilyn Lee oh I have a singer treadle from the 1900 not sure which one exactly as the code was chiseled away by previous owner :-( it works wonderful though.
Holy crickets, this is amazing!
Really beautifullllll
Incredible! Beautiful and wonderful :)
Thank you so much for the info. You are the best!
+Peggy Kwan You are so welcome! :)
That is lovely Marilyn. I had no idea you could do that on a treadle machine. It was very relaxing just watching but I was a bit concerned for your fingers, lol.
+Robyn Parkin Thank you! No need to worry about my fingers....I have done this a lot so I always know where my fingers are at and how close I can get to the needle without harm! It is also very relaxing to treadle.....it is almost like therapy!
I agree completely! I was making new curtains for my house a couple of days ago and I opted to use the treadle instead of the new fangled electric machine. I'd rather treadle! Just like crocheting...relaxing. I've crocheted myself to sleep many times.
Beautiful work . Your skill is amazingly reflected . Thank you for sharing .
+Philip Karukakalath ........Thank You!!! I love sharing!!
Wow beautiful work! All by hand and eye amazing! Do you use a straight stitch and then go over with a satin stitch to created the weaved looking effect in the netting?? Im trying to create a similiar style netting. Inspirational work marilyn thank you!
Thank you! Yes you need to start with a straight stitch and then go over it with a satin stitch otherwise it will fall apart. Keep trying and you will finally master it!
This is absolutely amazing! So very intricate and beautiful, too.
Hermoso trabajo, estoy aprendiendo recién y es muy relajante y satisfactorio ver los avances, saludos desde Santiago, Chile.
Gracias por compartir su lindo arte.
So accurate and beautiful work. I wish I could do the same. I wanted to learn this since I was a teenager. Thank you. You're amazing.
wow thank you for teaching us this form of art!!!
+Oana Maria Puciu .....You are very welcome!
you inspiered me to get an old sewing machine !!! I will ask you stuff on the way :))
+Oana Maria Puciu ....That is wonderful! I will help in anyway I can!
Stunning! It's the only word i got.
This is mesmerizing. I had no idea you could do something like this! Amazing! Truly amazing and you work with such grace! Oh I have to try this now! Thank you for your wonderful video❤️
beautiful
How absolutely exquisite wherever did you learn to do this I am in awe of you. I own a treadle machine and you have inspired me to have a go. Thanks Marilyn 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you! I am self taught....a lot of practice and frustration! Ha ha!
This is the most beautiful craft I've ever seen. You are indeed a Master of this art😍😍😍
This is breathtakinggggg! 💓💓💓💓
So so beautiful. Thanks so much 🤗🤗
I've been practicing, just getting the hang of the pedal and hand motions. For every downward press of the treadle my needle makes two stitches.
Very talented job Dear,Superb. I will try it.
Thank you!
It is mesmerizing watching your lace work progress. But I am trying to imagine how one would use the finished piece? How would you finally finish off those edges of the network? and then how would you attach the lace piece into a finished item, like a blouse?
your work is very beautiful, thank you for sharing, its so much hard work...
+Fatima Naqvi .....Thank you and you are so welcome. I guess I don't think of it as hard work as I love doing it!
+Marilyn Lee :)
Mam is machine key price ka ha kha sa mal ge please fist time comment jawb dana I'm Karachi Pakistan feast time comment ka ha new subscribe

+Sirajum Munira Thank you! :)
wonderful madame thank you.😘
I love
Un precioso trabajo. Quisiera aprender este arte y formar parte de su grupo. Le agradeceré
تسلم ايدك
WOW! cannot find the right words other than amazing. My sister has our grandmothers treadle machine and does not use it. I had no idea this could be done. Now I am wondering if she wants to part with it?
+Lois Harrison ..I hope she will part with it! You would love to do this embroidery ! And it is so relaxing and stress free besides being just totally beautiful!
This is incredible, I want to see more!! Is there a particular machine/s you prefer to use for this type of work? Very beautiful!
+cdb8315 Thank you! I have four treadle sewing machines that I use. I prefer the vintage machines with a rotary bobbin. I don't think that the machines with a shuttle bobbin work as well. You can do this on modern machines also but the advantage have with a treadle is that you can go so super slow and you have a lot more control of your work then. I think that is very important when you are just learning how.
+Marilyn Lee This what what I was wondering, how difficult would it be to do this with a motored machine. For health reasons a treadle wouldnt be appropriate. Getting the machine to go really really slow is difficult but that is what I am currently working on.
+equitime77 .....You can definitely also do this on a modern machine! And you are right, getting some modern machines to go slow can be difficult but some of them have a slow switch you can use to make it go slower. It depends on the machine you are using how slow you can get it to go using just the foot feed. Slow is good with this type of work, especially when you are a beginner.
Maravilhoso seu trabalho admiro seus trabalhos!
+Rosemery Abrantes Thank you!
Beautiful and amazing. Some day...I will try
+kmcpify ....You should! it is so fun to do.........and relaxing also!
+kmcpify I use a ziplock or trash bag to pull over my sewing bed and tape it to my table. very slick an quilts just slide over it.
+Judy Zedalis ..............Great idea!
Very inspiring. I noticed you don't use a stabilizing sheet of any sort for this. This is the video I was waiting for, thank you ever so much. So many questions about the process you have answered in your videos. I was confused for a bit on what stabilizers to use when and how and for what situation. The work on the lace and how you built it up to match the border I would have missed. The way you constructed the lace in the video helped me with the technique a lot. Anchoring it on the border then keeping the tension as you straight stitched across to the other anchor point, building the line up, and then binding it together the length. I do have a question though, did you use the same needle as the stitching you did with the flowers? My thought with what I was doing is I am using a thick weave cloth in a hoop with machine embroidery thread with regular black bobbin thread and a Scmhetz embroidery needle 90/14. Would I have to change my needle to sew through thin air for any tension issues or adjust for the lack of tension from the thread passing through the fabric as compared to sewing through air and the switch to the embroidery thread in the bobbin? Did you have to adjust the tension on the way you have yours set up for flowers to the lace?
+alibabafurball No you don't have to change to a different needle and your tensions should remain the same....no change there either! That makes life a little simpler for sure! I do not use any stabilizing sheet at all for any of my embroidery. If you keep your fabric extremely taut you will not have any puckering or trouble at all! I am happy that you are learning this wonderful art!
Absolutely Beautiful!.. It is a work of art. Is this the same as what is called open cut work, or is that a different technique. I can see how a skilled seamstress then, was worth her salt!..lol She could support herself and her Children, if need be, all with a treadle sewing machine. How long does it take to get accustomed to working the treadle? Your work is absolutely stunning, and thank you for sharing it on TH-cam.
+gabbyg561 ...Thank you! I am not sure if this is called open cut work....it may be...I haven't been doing it long enough to know all of the technical terms for it! I did not learn this from someone else...I was just experimenting but I am sure many do it this way. It takes a bit to get used to the treadle....mostly just getting the rhythm down right....but with persistence you finally get it right and then you don't forget(kind of like riding a bike!) I absolutely love using my treadle! It is so dependable and I have complete control of the speed and etc.....
Marilyn Lee
When I was telling my hubby about your video, and that you did a doily on a treadle, he said it is probably a lot easier to control the speed, than the modern machines. I agree, I think it would be easier, because the foot pedals are not as easy to control speed with.
My Grandma had a machine that had the knee lever to run the machine, and it was so much nicer and easier to control the speed.
You haven't been doing this very long?.. Wow, this gives me hope. LOL
+gabbyg561 ......Yes it is much easier on a treadle because you can control the speed so easily. A knee lever is also nice. I have a machine that we just modified(Singer Industrial, straight stitch and zig-zag) so that I can change the width of the zig-zag as I am sewing with a knee lever.This is going to be wonderful as I can go from narrow to wide(and back again) zig-zag very smoothly. I haven't had much time to play with it yet but I think it will be great for embroidery and monograms! I have only been doing embroidery on the treadle for a bout a year and a half..........
gabbyg561 m
you are so talentes
you are so talented! love your work
Hai Marilyn ....Can I use a motor used sewing machine to do such kind of wonderful art that you are mastered with.....You are really a good teacher with proper explanation...👏👏👏
Lindo!
Beautiful. How do you finish off the final edging please?
I've been wanting to learn an open lace technique for years, thank you! Do you use a particular kind of thread for more stability?
Just regular embroidery thread.
I FELL IN LOVE WITH WHAT YOU DO. questions, what type of paper do you put the pattern on under neath the water soluble stabilizer? what type of pen do you use to trace the pattern onto the stabilizer that won't stain after it's done. I want to do the word UFFDA and then wash away the stabilizer. It is for a very very special thing I am making my grand daughter. Yes this question is about this video and the other one you did with water soluble stabilizer. HELP HELP HELP
I feel like my treadle machine goes too fast no matter how slow I press down on the pedal. And the thread keeps getting stuck on the bottom. It runs smoothly when i I just do straight stitch though
Just try to slow down a bit.......walk instead of run! LOL! Be sure your tensions are set right if you plan on doing embroidery and also your fabric has to be extremely tight in the hoop.
Soo amazing! Thanks for your videos.
Thank you!
i want to know 1 thing
can i do it on brother se400 embroidary and sewing machine
plz plz plz plz rply
Yes you can. You can do this type of embroidery on any sewing machine!
Absolutely stunning creatively, I was in awe while watching the video, however Mam just a small question, when you started drawing lines for lace, what when underneath the thread? the cream/beige material.
Amazing! Where did you learn to do that?
Nice
I’m curious as to what is underneath the lace piece you are creating. If it is a slick “Teflon” type material, why is the bobbin thread not attaching itself?
It is a slick template plastic. It helps the hooped fabric glide smoothly.. I am not quite sure what you mean by your words " why is the bobbin thread not attaching itself?" Attaching to what? I have a small hole in the template where the bobbin thread can be pulled up and through.
@@MarilynLeefabricthreadartist in viewing I couldn’t see where the hole was for the needle and bobbin thread to pass through. Your crafting art is mesmerizing and I couldn’t figure out how? I’ve done free motion quilting but never with a “Teflon” type sheet for ease of movement. I do have a grid for achieving straight lines but there is a hole where the feed dogs go and I thought I should be able to see a hole for the needle to penetrate the sheet. I need to try this and it will probably be clearer. Thank you for answering.
@@sandrabranstiter8247 I cut a tiny hole in the plastic template sheet for the needle to go through and the bobbin thread to come up through. I tape the template sheet in place so it doesn't move. I remove the feed dogs altogether as they can hamper smooth thread flow as the thread, both top and bottom, has a habit on catching on the feed dogs in this sort of embroidery.
@@MarilynLeefabricthreadartist I am planning to change my 15-90 into a treadle, invest in a Teflon sheet and practice, I do have a Singer embroidery book with steps for learning. Thank you for sharing your gift and talent.
Sandy PS, I used to live in ND and have visited some of the 10,000 lakes-beautiful state.
@@sandrabranstiter8247 That sounds like a plan! Good luck and I hope you have a lot of fun with it! Yes...Minnesota is a beautiful state but it sure can get cold here! Good time to stay in and create! :)
Qual a linha de bordado q você uza para esse rechilieu
Are you using a supreme slider?
Thank mam :) you are so amazing :)
Hi +Marilyn Lee, I love your work! Do you think I would be able to do embroidery on a hand crank machine, or do you find that treadle is the only way to go? Thank you
Mam, can you show twine cut work?
Hello specifically what machine are you running? my main machine is a Singer Redeye on the treadle but I'm not sure if it would be appropriate.
+Debra Mandich .....This is a 15-91. You should be able to embroidery with yours. A rotary works better than a shuttle bobbin machine for this work.
Hi Marilyn! I have a question....I was wondering if you know what kind of filler thread or cord is generally used in creating the Richelieu cut work I see being done on the treadle or vintage machines? I have spent many hours looking for this info everywhere and can't find an answer. Thank you so much for making and sharing your videos. I've learned so much from watching them, especially your thread painting and lace making videos! It motivated me to get a treadle machine and begin teaching myself. Your work is absolutely gorgeous!
I think that the regular thread that is used for crocheting doilies and such would work perfectly!
Thanks so much Marilyn for your answer! Size #10 and #3 crochet thread is exactly what I've been using so far.....it seems to be working pretty well.
Awesome!
After cutting cloth how it possible to stich lik dat maaam... Pls tel me
What embroidery/darning foot did you use? None of my vintage machines came with one. I'd love to know how you set up your machine to do this.
+Cynthia Ash ....No foot of any kind is used...the pressure foot is removed. I have another video on my TH-cam channel that tells you how to prepare your machine to do this type of embroidery....it would be very helpful to you.
Thank you Marilyn, I'll have a look at it.
Cynthia Ash
The video will help you! Thank you!
Talented! Wow! What kind of attachment are you using? Is it custom? Thanks. :)
+Bridget Faucheux ..Thank you.......Actually there is no attachment at all. I have removed the pressure foot and it is just the needle that you see. What you may be seeing is the little thread guide wire and from the angle the video is taken it could almost look like there is an attachment.
Very nice. Do you make kebayas?
+Tony Willock ....No I don't but they are very pretty!
+Marilyn Lee As is your sulam lacework.
+Tony Willock ,,,,,,,,Thank you!
