Oh my do you really want me to tell you? Well here goes:
Ruby is "Miss Ruby"
New Williams is "Sir William"
1st Featherweight is "Licorice"
1nd Featherweight is "Onyx"
Singer Treadle with Sphinx decals is "Cleopatra"
Singer Electric with Sphinx decals is "Nefertiti"
White #1 is "Snow White"
White #2 is "Dove"
Free is "Threads"
Minnesota is "Mini"
Singer 27 is "Goldie" due to all the decals
Singer 99 is "Black Beauty"
Hand Crank is "Cranky" as she was broken in shipment and
I am looking for a new crank for
her.
Necchi is "Lola"
Montgomery Wards is "Ethyl" as she was my neighbors
moms machine.
Singer treadle is "Sweetheart" my dh bought for me
Singer (1962) not named
Viking quilting machine ~ not named yet
SE LE Viking Embrodery machine ~ not named yet
White Serger ~ not named yet
Singer I just rescued from curb side shopping ~ not named
Most of these machines were going to thrown away and I just couldn't stand to see a bit of history in a scrap yard or in a garbage dump. They all work and I am in the process of cleaning the older ones up.

Betty Gee's Queen Bee, she even has a little name sticker on her so everyone knows. I name everything, my family gets a kick out of it and kids me about it. I even name each turkey we have on Thanksgiving. Last year's was Herbert and he was a mighty tasty fella.
