Why is a cheap Brother machine at WM making my heart flutter? My old White does a perfectly good job...she even does fmq if the user would get better at it! And she's a pretty green color too. Is there a thing as machine addiction like there is fabric addiction?
Gee I have it, just didn't know there was a name for it! YOu hit it on the head for me! I have been the last two weeks looking at FW and 301's on ebay & craigslist! I already have two janomes that I enjoy! I have a Singer 99 and a 15 that are tanks. I haven't even looked at the 99 since I brought it home hardly and yet I have my dh convinced I could use another!!!! Did I mention I have two sergers also? I sold my treadle years ago when we moved, now I think I need to buy another! Like you, I have very little time for this addiction, and yet I still have SMAD! :lol:
