How do you decide which one to sew on? :)
Trish, most of my machines have jobs to do. My 127 Sphinx is the machine I use to hem jeans - it will sew through anything maintaining a perfect stitch! My Two Spools is my piecing machine, my 15-88 is the one I use for free motion quilting, my 500a and 503a Rocketeers are used for decorative stitching, my FW's I rotate and take to classes, my Pfaff 1222e is used when I need to use monafilament thread, my Singer 9W is kept in the bedroom for quick mending jobs, my Free #5 is also a piecing machine, the Wilcox and Gibbs are for decorative straight stitching, my Pfaff 130 and several of the 15 clones, etc., are rotated in and out of my sewing room for finishing borders since they all have reverse!
