I have 6 up north, and 3 down south. I don't feel that's too many.
My husband has way more "whacker sticks" (golf clubs) Hee, Hee.
Seems fair to me. It's all relative.

ditto !!! I even have my dh looking at older machines AND not
only looking but buying!
He got a Featherweight with case for $160 that works beautifully. Then we found a Pricilla for $8.00. I've got to take her to my machine man to see if she will work if not she can be
on display. Think I'll keep him and the machines!!!

You are not alone and you are not weird! I have four treadles that I use to make my quilts, other vintage machines as my backup machines, and others that look pretty sitting on the bookcase. They have brought coziness and added warmth to an otherwise boring room. I love my vintage ladies and gents!
Enjoy!

I don't know how anyone could be exposed to these vintage, beautiful, reliable machines. You're not weird, you just have an eye for classic quality!

Right on MarshaKay!!! With my DH it's tools and RC cars, not to mention his classic car projects.
