I'm small time. Only 10 machines between my daughter and me.
Singer 648, 620, 101, 99x2, 66, 27
Montgomery Wards
Brunswick
Rodney 15 clone
The Brunswick has been in storage for 5 years. I forgot we had it until recently. It's a VS machine and needs new wiring, I'll get to it after a few other projects are finished.

I'm glad to see my 30 machines are way out numbered. You guys are crazier than me. ;>


My thoughts exactly!!!!!

my DH reads on this board all the time - in fact he's the one that showed it to me. But I've been married for over 30 years, so he's not going to be shocked by anything I post - he knows me too well !!

Besides, about 1/3 of the machines are his. And it's almost all HIS machines that we need to sell, as he bought ones because they were cheap and not for any other reason.

MacyBaby, sorry you 2 decided not to build the museum. Maybe you could get a grant for it. ;)

and a 60's Kenmore with cams

Loved bringing all the "vintage" ones back to operation. (All because of this board)

I cannot even being to think about listing what machines I have--everyone who comes around to my sewing room looks with big eyes at machines that I have scattered all over everywhere. I can't turn down a $10 machine no matter how hard I try. Some of them are fixed up and running, depending on the amount of time I was willing to take away from my quilting chores at the time it was added to the collection, some are still in questionable shape until I can get "a round to it".....and I have my favorite two that I use all the time; a FW, and my Gammill LA, and oh yeah, my Elna that is my most favorite of all of them which I use exclusively for proper sewing efforts; no quilting.
