    I have two Vikings one purchased in 1970 and a newer one I bought in 1993. I still use both. My Serger is a very old Viking bought in the early 80's and the machine on my quilting frame is a Jannone 1600. All work well. When I first started sewing on my own I had a singer. That only lasted about 5 years before I discovered the Viking. Love my Viking.

    I have two Janomes and a Bernina. Love them all!
    Oh I don't need info on machines. I was just wondering what folks used. I'm happy with my sewing machines.

    Ihave 2Kenmores, a Brother, and each has some feature I realy like. I piece on all of them but have not learned to quilt my own quilts yet. I plan to do a small one and try to learn that this year.

    I have a Babylock Quest Plus for general sewing, piecing, and quilting. Three Singer Featherweights for fun, just piecing so far. The Elna 686 serger doesn't get much use, just hemming and the few garments I make a year. A Brother HS 2000 for my sons, 7&9 years old, and for classes if I ever need more than a straight stitch. But I'm on the hunt for an older, German-made Pfaff just because and considering a straight stitcher like a Juki 2010Q or a Brother Nouvelle 1500S. And I NEED a treadle, right?

    I have a Viking 545, purchased in 83 with money from a wedding dress I made for someone. In 87 I purchased a White Huskyvarna Serger while I was working on 4 weddings during the summer. Loads of ruffles and the serger was so handy for the hems. In 2001, I purchase a 7570 Phaff with Embroidery attachment - just because purchase. The summer of 2009 I purchase 2 more of the White Huskyvarna Serger on Ebay, one for my daughter and one as a back for me. I also own a 1910 Singer machine in Cabinet I purshased from a little ole' lady at a rummage sale. In perfect condition and works with all attachments.
