I call mine what they are - the Janome, the Kenmore but yesterday I bought a brand new Elna and I am thinking of calling her Ellie. I think she will be my new best friend!

I just got a new to me embroidery machine from Tomilu. She was so kind to post a photo of it after I made arrangements to buy it. The first thing I seen was a big E on the front of it and my mothers name came to mind. I named her Elsie after my deceased mother so now whenever I use her I feel as if my mom and I are working on the project together. It makes me feel like mom is close and that makes me happy.

Crabby Patty, I believe I have those same glasses that are on your dog. They came in the mail with my yearly giving report from a church that I visit when I visit my mom in Florida. They are hilarious!!

Haven't named mine, afraid they may talk back. "Use me, Use me"

I call my Singer treadle "Nefertiti" because it has the sphynx decals. My LA I call Sportster because it cost just about the same as the motorcycle. My Bernina I just call the Bernina.
