My Brother NV1000 combo sewing/emb is Bitty
(does a bit of everything
The Janome is Naomi
The other 4 don't have names because they are
"junkie" machines, like the saying goes you get
what you pay for they all where cheap machines
except for one and it needs to be repaired (my FIRST
new machine ever bought).
Than I have the 2 sergers no names.

I started naming mine after I got one free from a friend that had belonged to her late mother. I decided to name the machine after her Mom. I have now named all six of my machines. I have Vesta, my Singer 3400XL I bought in 2001; Martha, my Bernina 1530, named for the former owner; my White, named Betty (someone here on the board suggested that name); my Elna, named Helen after my Nana; my Singer 401A named Elsie after her former owner; and a Necchi, named Linda (means pretty in Spanish).
