I just have a cheap Singer I bought about 8 years ago when I first started machine quilting in high school. I barely have room for that! I guess its hard for me to imagine how anyone has the room for half a dozen sewing machines when my sewing space is 2'x3' because of the lack of space I do have (most people have closets bigger than that!) When my machine is not in use its wedged into the bottom shelf of the wire rack that houses my gaming systems and TV (the Singer is becoming aquinted with the XBox 360. lol).
