I love your quilts an i really like your sewing table iI happ to have a golden oldie out in storage because i don't have big enough sewing room to put all my machines in yet.but on of these days if I have to build it myself I will.Needs to be about three times the size it is now.Just because
of the machines them selves.I have five machines all together Brother
inoves is ,an a Brother that i bought at walmart,a singer that was my Dear Step moms,an then a Nolting quilting machine that I got 4 1/2years ago.When my dear hubby got his settlement from disabilty.So now I sew
an take care of him.An when i'm down an out of comossion he takes care of me.

I had one of them before I got my first Brother an it was the I used to sew my hubbies winter caot twenty years ago an that machine was a
real work horse for it sewed that coat it was denium an sheepskin lining
an that thing was so heavy an thick he didn't have to wear any thing else but a t-shirt under it an he'd stay warm. an thats is in thirty below weather.He was a carpenter then an drove for amish.

Thank you for the comments, the Kenmore is the only e-machine I own everything else is all treadle operated. I have a wall unit in my shop that I keep my machines that I have earmarked for use and I just grab what ever one I feel like using at the time.

The Universal is the go to machine for me and if I want fancy stitches I just get my attachments out for it and I am ready to go for it!

I really love my model 27 which is a VS machine (vibrating shuttle) it so soothing to listen to it while you sew, it sounds like a fine tuned Model A Ford!! But the only catch is the you cant back tack on it and the bobbins do not hold a lot of thread but I still love the little guy!

All of my Christmas presents this year will sewn on my 1921 Singer 66 Red Eye. :wink:

I love the purple one and how the squares aren't perfect squares. It gives it a cool "wonky" effect
