Cue for members to claim they have silent machines :-)

My treadle machines make a very soothing clickety-clack.

The one I used to use did too and it wasn't unpleasant - but it interfered
with my radio listening (plays and other voice-based programmes).

Hand sewing, apart from being very satisfying, is an excuse to sit and relax
while enjoying the radio.

I do a lot of knitting too and have a machine. Guess how I knit!
