Default 13 of my VSMs at a Museum
i've been teased about needing to start a VSM museum. I don't think I will, but this weekend I took 13 of my babies for a temporary visit to a museum in Blue Rapids Kansas USA. After loading and unloading 13 machines I was glad I didn't take any industrials. The will be there for two months. I did not display bobbins or shuttles. I gave permission for the 99 HCs to be used.

That was nice of you - and what an interesting mix, too. Smart to keep the bobbins and shuttles out of the display!

I love that you have enough machines to make such a great display. Thank you for sharing. If I were in Kansas, I would go by and see them in person.
