Default OH OH I caught the Bug!

I have two new "expensive" machines, a serger and a cover pro but seem to have caught the vintage bug. Started with a black 221 featherweight, then a white featherweight, then a 222 freearm featherweight! Oh no, then I found a Singer 301, of course Singer Red Eye 66 treadle came next, then a Freedom hand crank and now a Viking 21 from the 50's. I already had a Singer 128 and a Jones hand crank that were bought years ago just because they were "cute" and put up on a shelf for decoration.

I have cleaned them all up, oiled and have most of them sewing nicely. I actually prefer sewing on the vintage machines. I am making a quilt on the treadle and next plan to make one on one of the hand cranks.

I blame Bonnie Hunter for my sewing "virus". She is contagious.

Have to say, if I am going to be "sick", vintage sewing machine virus is the way to go.

My husband thinks I am crazy. he he

I have to stay off of ebay!!!!!!

What do all of you have in your sewing room? I am feeling the need for more sew-meds.
