Hi all, I just had to admit to my addiction...is this like AA ?? I own a total of 12 machines. They are in the range of an original from the late to early 17-18 hundreds to my collection of family machines. I have collected over the last 20 years or so from family members. I sew on my old faithful, a Kenmore. I started to sew at 8 so I've been at it for about 42 years now.
