I call my 1475 Phaff, "old faithful". Have had her since 1990. She has to be turned on for about 10 minutes to start working, but then she is her old dependable self. My long-arm is called "Minerva" after my grandmother who taught me to quilt and made sure I had a quilt in my hope chest. When she is not doing her best, she gets the full name "Minerva Margaret".
