Never named machines, until I joined this site, then I felt compelled to. My Janome workhorse is Virginia (my grandmother who quilted); 1953 Singer 15 named Edith Cavell (my wonderful step-mother who made me fabulous clothes when I was a youngster); Memory Craft 350e Embroidery Machine has no name yet; and a Janome that I keep on hand for the granddaughters when they visit(no name for this one either)
