It works!
Hurrah! The bf acquired some tools for Christmas, and I swiped them to do more repairs to my sewing machine. I've now fastened the treadle belt together and screwed back on the bit of the cabinet that was coming off. I can now pedal away and turn the wheel and move the needle up and down! Yaaay! Am now treadling away making lines on bits of paper to get practising. Only a week before my dressmaking course starts now...
They're not weeds - that's a habitat for wildlife, don't you know?

Hehe, I can call it my hamster wheel. I still have three 'bits' that I can't fit anywhere though...
