My embroidery machine is Judy's. I inherited her from my late MIL Judy.

My "new" singer is a 1954 Singer 66. Her name is Raquel after my mom's sister. If I would have had a daughter, her name would have been Raquel. She's my favorite Auntie. I now have my mom's FW and so her name is "Momma's". Someday, I'll have a Singer 15-90 and her name will be Neida, one of my mom's other sisters.

My everyday piecing machine is a Janome named Naomi who, coincidently, was the name of my mom's other sister. All the girls are covered! My aunt Naomi died the same year as my mom.

I think is Mom would have lived to see me quilt and use her machine, she would have been happy that they had her sisters names.
