I have my first machine, a Kenmore that I don't use anymore but loved her to death My Dad bought it for me so I will never part with it. Then I got a Bernina which I love.
Then I got bitten by the vintage machine bug- so now I have a total of 9 machines!!
I piece a lot on my FW- they are so much fun- the stitch, the portability etc. I also found how much I love bringing old machines back to their beauty and function. There's something very gratifying in that!

I have two that I sew on, one down in the dungeon (cellar), one in the sunroom, that is also where my TL18LS longarm is at, a serger....and a CE150 Singer Futura I use for embroidery.
I can be sewing on one, embroidery going on the other ...and the quilting machine going...all at the same time. Have to love the Qbot for that!
I also have a treddle that was my mom's, a Thompson mini industrial I use for upholstery sewing, an older Singer in wood case & 4 or 5 that we got at auctions at storage units...those I kept after cleaning & servicing them...was going to use in giving quilt classes...but that hasn't happened yet.

I have 7 machines and I am going tomorrow to get 3 more. All are special in their on way.And if I come across one or two or three for a great price I will buy them. Sometimes I keep them and sometimes I give them to friends and family.I buy almost every machine I come across that has a good price. There is always someone that can use it, and if not it isn't hurting anything by sitting in my sewing room or garage.
