Does it count if I know almost nothing about sewing yet? If I am better with a screwdriver than with a presser foot? Because in my very most humble and novice and dismissable opinion, I must say that Ziggy, my Phoenix 429 zick-zack nahmaschine, gives the prettiest stitch of all my machines. Amazing zig zag. Amazing.

I have two Elnas (a Green Supermatic and an SU62), and while I love the Green Girl cosmetically, and I love the quietness of the 62, and I love the cams of them both (duckies! Who can top that?!?), I find they are hard to get a balanced stitch, tension etc. But maybe I am just not that clever yet. I am not getting rid of them until I become more skilled so I can make a better assessment.

I have a FW, and a Singer Clone (my avatar), and what joys they are also. My Great Blue Avatar is hypnotizing in its quiet humminess stitchiness ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Must stop tinkering and start sewing.
