    Default Have You Been Good This Year ? What New Machines Did You Buy ?

    just like to see how many of us have been good. good as in controlling this dreaded SM addiction. anyway to start with - i have not bought anything this year. not yet. but i see that a lot of us has so many machines to brag about. i say if ever you got one or two, good for you guys. you're doing great.

    I bought that Singer touch & sew but that may have been before New Year's. I knew we had an older machine in storage left over from our antiques business but I didn't have a chance to look at it until now. I couldn't get to it very well, just enough to see that it's a Brunswick vibrating shuttle machine and judging by the brown crinkle paint was probably made around 1930s or 40s. I'll probably clean it up after the touch & sew but frankly 4 cabinet machines aren't going to fit in the house.

    Nope, no curing of the addiction . This is #3, the latest one from GW. I bid on this one because of the decal set.

    I happened across a tiny machine that sews a chain stitch. It says "Signature" on it, and it is green like my Singer 15-125.
