Of course I name my machines. Keeps me from calling the, #%*+ when they are acting up. APQS Millenium is Matilda as in waltzing Matilda just love spending time with her. We got a black 301 from eBay who was just Brenda Lou from the start. Since featherweights are supposed to be the little sisters to the 301's the two black featherweights are Suzie and Sally. My Artista 640 is Patience, she patiently sits and waits her turn until I quit playing with the vintage machines and need her for something they can't do. The 3/4 size hand painted White Pearl is Patience's backup. She needs an oriental name to go with the style of painting but for now she is simply Pearl. We just received a mocha 301 from eBay. Her foot controller isn't working so we are dealing with the seller on a solution. I think I'll call her Tempest. All our other purchases have been as expected. As we get others up and running and I learn their personalities there will be more names to add to the list.
