Let's see if I can remember all their names :) my Minnesota treadle is named "Miss Minnie" (after my late grandmother Miss Minnie Lee McKee), my New Home is named Naomi, (because she was made by Janome), my Necchi is named "Sophia" (because she's Italian), my singer 66 is named "Daisy" (no reason there, just like the name), my singer zig-zag is "Zsa-Zsa", recently purchased an old Pfaff, think I'll call her "Penny", my DD named my D1 "Chloe", my SE is "Helga", my small brother is "Brenda" and the singer I just got from my grandmother is "Shirley", I think I better start making them name tags so I can keep them straight!!!!!!!!:) :) :) Don't think I realised I had so many machines.

My Ellisimo I call Dream Weaver (DW for short)! My little Brother that I use for classes most of the time I call "you little _ _ _ t!" Seems like I spend more time wrestling with it than I do sewing! My fault because I really want to be sewing on DW and am spoiled!
Should probably sell the Brother and use the money to buy a rolling tote for DW so I can take her with me!
