My Elna is "Miss Ellie" and my little Brother for classes is "Susie Q" don't know why they just are

Quilts rock

Wow, that's a good question. I have named my car, our RV , my bike but not my sewing machines. How could I have neglected to do that??? Man I'm slipping!

Well, Ellie (Elna), Ivory (white(actually tan) 301a Singer), Ebony (my beautiful black 301Singer), Abby (featherweight off of ebay), Annie (Singer Anniversary 2012), Flo my grandmother's Singer 66-6), Emily (my mother's Kenmore) yea, I name them and actually tell my husband which one I am going to go use. They all have their quirks and their talents. I have others and they are named, also.

I only call my machines names when they are not sewing right...maybe I need to show a little love.

This is how I differentiate my sewing machines: My Bernina 820 is "Bernina 820" and my Brother SQ 9000 is"Brother SQ 9000", LOL.

Anita, Oh, to find another quilter who is afraid to try her new machine. I purchased a Symphony Baby Lock over 16 months ago and have yet to sew on it. I think I'm getting close as she keeps calling me. Perhaps if I name her, she won't seem so threatening.....

Named my Quattro 2 Gertrude! LOL

This thread is so funny. I do name most of my machines, also. And some of the cars I own or owned. My black FW is Maggie May, my HV Topaz 20 is Topaz (how original ??), my white FW "pending" name is Pearl, my old Kenmore is Katie. My car names are ..A 1965 Nova I owned when I was young was "Bertha", A Corolla was "Lola the Corolla", A Toyota Previa minivan was "The Mother Ship" and my newest is a 2 door MB roadster and her name is "Rosie" (she's red). There has been many cars and sewing machine that went un-named...Poor things LOL

I don't even give my cats names; for some reason they are both Kitty, or sometimes, Naughty Kitty!! I'm not going to name my machines!
