Janome 11000
Janome Gem Platinum
Basic Janome serger
Gramma's Wheeler and Wilson treadle
HandiQuilter Avante longarm

Would trade it all (except for my Gramma's treadle) for the new Janome 12000!

I have a Bernina 153 and a Bernina 440. Love them both. The only other machine I would like to have is a longarm quilting machine.. but can't afford it right now

Black Featherweight (Shelley)-- now class machine. Learned how to sew on one and finally got one last year. Awesome!
Viking 150-- was my class machine. Gave it to my son and he is now is learning to sew
Viking 500 -- dropped it off a sewing table, case is bent but still sews great
Viking Designer 1 - LOVE IT, does everything and does it perfectly, never a tension problem.

If anyone is interested in a Designer 1 embroidery unit I have it and never has been opened

I don't do a lot of stitches or fancy work so I have no need of a computerized machine. These are what I have. Most from yard sales or from before I got married.

1 Sphinx Singer treadle
1 Singer 221
1 Singer 301
1 Singer 401a
1 Singer 500 (it could be 501, without going home and looking, I'm not certain)

I have s Sier slant needle 401A, a featherweight, and a Viking 1200. Use them all. I also own a 1915(?) Singer treadle which DD has right now. She learned to sew on it.

Who can actually afford to buy the ones that are over $3000.00?

I have a Pfaff Creative 4.0. I will keep this machine until I wear it out. I love it.

I have a Viking Desinger II and a brother Disney emroidery machien I also have a featherweight and of course my long arm - bought the best I could afford it is a joy to sew versus the Pain when my old singer started not sewing as well - saving for a baby lock Audrey to carry with me to sewing and classes...
