I love old sewing machines, I wish I had the space to display all of mine but then it would take up my stash space, your stash looks great, I'd love to rummage through it!!! :lol:

Wow an old Necchi. My mom used to have one. That is what I learned to sew on when I was growing up. So many times I wish I had that machine. How do you like your Brother sewing machine?

I learned to sew on a Necchi! It had cams and a bunch of different stitches on it. I made many many things on that machine...brings back memories. My mom finally retired it a few years ago. love your stash!!

I have used a number of machines in my time. My mother traded in a Singer years ago (approx 42 years) when a salesman came to the door selling sewing machines. What she got was a Brother and to this day it is still in action!!

I bought an older Necchi (almost 50 yrs old) and it works just fine. I had already purchased a newer model of the Necchi and I love it. I have had a Dressmaker, Singer, White, Brother, and of course, my very first one of my own was a Signature. That one is still in operation also. But my very favorite one to sew quilts on is my Featherweight 221. I had two of them and gave one to my daughter. That is the one she uses most now herself.

I am sure there are alot nicer machines out there. But I am totally satisfied with the ones that I have now. And mine get alot of use.

Love the Necchi - I came across a Miranda one day, and had to have it! It's in line to go to the tech for a thorough checking out and re-wiring. I'm becoming a firm believer in older machines more and more :-)
