Much to my DH's dismay... Six machines.

Kenmore 385 series that I bought new in 1992-ish
Singer 221 (ebay - 2005)
Singer 9022 (inherited from my Granny when she passed in December)
Singer Model 15 Treadle head w/Tiffany Decals (inherited from my Great Grandmother)
Singer 99 Handcrank (I wonder if the previous owner EVER used her? - Craigslist purchase last month)
Singer 185 (just bought on ebay - should be here this week!)

I have mostly used my FW for piecing and for taking to quilting group.
The Kenmore I've used more than the others because it has all the decorative stitches I used for QAYG.

Granny's 9022 needs to go to see Dr. Singer and I need to figure how she works.
Great Grandmother's treadle head I'm planning to convert to a hand crank to teach DD4 how to sew.
The Singer 99 hand crank I just bought last month and have yet to give her a whirl.
The 185 is in the hands of FedEx at the moment and should arrive Tuesday, hopefully!

I will be looking next to get the zigzagger attachment and as many cams for the decorative stitches so that I can start using the older machines in my QAYG.
