It just happens....I have a Viking Lily....great machine but limited as far as decorative stitches go. I have my late MIL's Viking Rose...because none of my SIL's sew. I rarely use it....it is just a back up machine. And in Dec I bought a brand new Viking Ruby! Now I am learning to embroider. Oh, yeah....also have my grandmother's Singer Treadle in it's gorgeous cabinet....I do not use it but I sure love it.
