Good to know!!
I WANT a lot more machines than I can properly care for. So I've given myself a rule - I must USE each machine at least once a year, or it needs to go to a new home. And I don't mean just plug it in and make it go, I mean actually sew something with it. A pillowcase or tote bag if nothing else. If I can't bring myself to do that much work with it, obviously I don't need it and shouldn't be its caretaker. I've started logging last-used dates on the chart I keep on my PC with all my machines' basic info. I like it, it encourages me to bring different machines with me to classes and on vacations. (Plus this way I can pretend I'm not just hoarding them when my inner voice starts mocking me. "See, inner voice? They all get used. I NEED all of them!")
Non-working rustbucket project machines are excepted from the "use" rule though. Until I get them fixed!
