HONESTLY? yes you should get one! a good ole singer is the best to use... they sew straight without any guidance... I love my babylock but it doesn't sew as well as the old ones.........

The DH just gave me a few bucks for my birthday, and I'm thinking of buying a Singer Featherweight. My main machine is a Janome 6600, but I just love those little vintage beauties and I'm thinking of buying one to add to my sewing space.

Here's the question: do I need it? If you use one as a secondary machine, what do you use it for? How often do you use it? I don't want it to collect dust in its case. If you don't think I'll use it much, feel free to speak up, too!

By the way, I never go to retreats. I may take a sewing class or two this summer, but they have machines there I could use.

Thanks for your help!
