I forgot the newest little gem I picked up thanx to DH, he found it and said hey for $9.98 buy it. It is a Electro Hygeine, about the size of a featherweight 221 and I though tit was at first from across the store it was in. Cant find info on it to date it but guessing early 50's or maybe even older for it even takes shuttles.

Would like to get a Baby Lock Inspire Serger and still waiting for my Featherwweight 221 to appear..

Featherweight 221, was grandmothers, now mine.
Thompson miniwalker, used daily for Industrial sewing at home.
2 sergers- 1 is a Singer DH gave me for xmas and the other is a White that a freind was going to throw out (my way).
a Singer Treadle, just got it. haven't used it yet.
A Brother.
5 different Singers.
So, Thats 11 machines. I used 5 of them all the time.

I'm debating whether to answer this question or not....sometimes it's a little embarrassing to admit I have a sewing machine addiction. I LOVE all the good ones past and present....Bernina 820 (8 Series-still wondering if I deserve this beauty), Bernina 150QE, Bernina 1031 (a mechanical), Bernina 240 (just bought it today! :) ), Singer 301, Singer Fiddle 66 dating back to the 1800s, and Singer Red Eye. I'm going to probably list the Bernina 150QE for sale here on the board....after all, how many machines can a girl use? I said "use", not "love". Sometimes it's hard to separate the two.

I also have a brother HS2000, I think the harp is 5 3/4". I just finished piecing and SID a queen size quilt with it. Oops! I also just purchased a white from the70's which I am currently researching to find out if I can fmq with it. Got it at local Goodwill for $30, it runs great! The harp is a tiny bit bigger at 7 1/2". Does anyone know, is the store lady right in that we are overworking our fw Brothers?
