I have machines stashed everywhere and love them all. I switch machines all the time to sew. Right now I have three projects going on three different machines. I can't stand seeing a nice old machine neglected and froze up when someone used to love her and the current owner thinks she's a piece of junk. If its in good shape under the crust I buy and rejuvenate then off to my quilt group I go to sew on it feeling really good with a new project for the new machine. Sell?! I can't stand to part with any. It's like my horse and mule...no way Jose'...I'm afraid the new owner may not feed them right. In the case of my machines...oil and clean. Yep, I know I am sick but it's better than drinking!
