I have 14 sewing machines. It started out because I really didn't like the new Singer that I bought when I first started sewing. So I kept looking for a old Singer that was all metal. DH helped me find some on CL and at auctions. So now I have the cheap Singer, a featherweight, 301, 401, 500, 503, 66 handcrank, 201, 223, 99K, 15-91, a modle 12 treadle, 72w19 hemstitcher and a Pink Atlas. I use all except the treadle and hemstitcher. I have a very large 5 bedroom farm house with 12 closets to store some of them in as well as a good sized sewing room. At some point, I will get rid of a few that I don't use/like.
