Uh-oh...got a problem...

So... I think we Americans have so much that we don't recognize when enough is enough. (When will I have enough fabric, for example? Today was the last day for the 25% discount. I had to sit on my hands to NOT to order fabric that I didn't need so that I wouldn't feed my addition. But I DID IT!) When I feel the adrenaline rush that comes from the potential of making an unnecessary purchase, I feel most successful when I take the money I'm ABOUT to spend needlessly/waste and give it to people who really need it. Otherwise, I just have more STUFF to get rid of later. Some days I do better than others ;)

I have a Viking I bought 35 years ago, still running hard and well. I do look at some of the others I think because they are new and clean (smile) Paid $400.00 back then recond it will last me the rest of my life. I need to stop drooling....

Definitely got a favorite...one or the other of my 7 Featherweights. BTW, you live just up the road from me, I'm in Delmar. Hello neighbor!

Why is a cheap Brother machine at WM making my heart flutter? My old White does a perfectly good job...she even does fmq if the user would get better at it! And she's a pretty green color too. Is there a thing as machine addiction like there is fabric addiction?
