In the Dec. Jan issue of Vogue Patterns Magazine there is a good read from a collector with photo's. How Many is to many. Also there is a good lesson on Machine Tension. I thought some of you might want to check it out.

I tell my husband, you love to collect guns, clean them, admire them, and I feel the same way about old sewing machines. How many is too many? Well, each time I add a new one to my collection, I say...STOP! Then another vintage beauty seems to come my way, I love them, absolutely love them.

Thank you for telling us about the article and I can tell you there is no such thing as too many. :thumbup:

I am going to look it up the next time I am out.
