Yes I do! I have Bernice my Bernita, Sally Sapphire my Viking, Gabi my little Janine named for my DGD, Aunt Gertie is my 1955 Featherweight, Ruby is my 1941 Red Featherweight and my 1951 Viking Automatic is Barry Green (Barry was my dearest friend and I will always miss her). Sally started a group of hand Quilters about 45 years ago which I joined when I moved here 11 years ago. Aunt Gertie was my aunt and she would have been delighted to know I named my machine after her. She was a quilter and the worlds oldest Avon lady. Gabi is my granddaughter and I taught her to sew when she was about 7 or 8. At 14 she is more interested in friends but I have hopes she will sew again. She had a brief sewing session in school and she proudly reported she was the only one who could thread a machine. Ruby is named that because she is red and she is 1941 like me and a Ruby is my birthstone. Bernice is jut because.
