I think I will host a TOGA

 Now that I am officially on the Treadle On email list, I think I can call my "gathering" this fall a TOGA.

I will double check but since we will be addressing mechanics and use of people powered machines as well, I think I can claim it is a TOGA (Treadle On Gathering and Academy).

If not, it will be MSMO Days. 

Here:
The planning committee met yesterday after the morning walk.
So far no one can agree on the itinerary beyond: wake up, eat, nap, wake up, bark, nap, wake up, SQUIRREL, bark, nap, pester for supper, eat, nap, sleep.  New planning committee is being organized

  2. I enjoy your blog very much. I learn a lot. I like your committee. Are they standard poodles? I have a toy poodle who is a committee of one.

  4. Where will the TOGA be? If I'm close, and it is not scheduled when I'm moving, I'll be there!

  5. If you are serious, I'll be there too. I'll even help stack the fire wood.

    1. The fire wood will be stacked long before the TOGA. I figured you would come.

  6. Omigosh! Is that your building? It is the workshop of my dreams. Who is your audience of attendees? I guess I would use any excuse to see your setup. I have one treadle, do I qualify? I am at a conference at Wheaton this week and have not touched a sewing machine since Saturday! I can't wait to get home!

    1. That is Steven's Shop. I have a small space in the back. This is where we will gather. Linda, just come. You qualify.

  7. You would think that with a committee like that, more eating would be involved.

    1. Yeah, I can't figure that one out. Might have to find a new committee.
