    I have an "older" Janome and a 6600. I use it for piecing and am just working slowly with it for quilting.

    I've thought about this but how would I sew in the dark? Ours usually goes out at night. :)
    bet there would be a way to run a light by the treadle.....would that be way cool or what....actually i know exactly how that could work...be right back

    I have 11 and just bought a new Janome 6600 today...she joins seven Singers of various ages, the oldest being a dame from 1907;as well as a Bernina 1008, a Husqvarna/Viking Platinum, a Baby Lock serger and the queen of the house, my Gammill Premier Plus. Wouldn't take anything for any of them...what's that? You know where there's another old babe who needs a home? Call me!!!
    :lol:

    open it up and check on the inside....actually when you clean the lint out of under the presser foot plate check for printing on the underside of the plate

    I think I have 30, but a dozen of them are toys or toy-sized. One Bernina Artista, singer 15, 20, 66, 99, 101, 127, 128, 201 (2 of these, both in Queen Anne cabinets with benches, 221 (4 of those-Featherweights), 301 (3 of those, 2 in cabinets and 1 in the trapezoidal case), 319, 401 and 503 (the 501 keeps eluding me)and a Genie. Then there's the Grasshopper (Elna) and a Sears model in brown with a godzilla finish that came in a great rock maple cabinet circa 1940! Also have a redeye in a simple oak parlor cabinet and 2 other treadles plus a hand crank machine that was once in a treadle cabinet. I stopped buying machines long ago, when I couldn't find room for another! I use them as end tables, desks, and the maple one holds up my microwave in the kitchen!

    I have a new 830 Bernina with the embroidery abilities, an older 930 bernina , a 334DS Bernina surger, 3 dometop singers,a singer 221 replica , A Janome 600 and a older singer treadle, my husband put the belt on it today , he refinished it for me last winter.It is a focal point as you come into my living room,I use the 830 every day, the 930 for certain things when I am using the 830 for embroidery,and the dometops are all on display now on my potshelves, the Janome and the replica are for classes, I can't even lift the 830 Bernina , it is so heavy and has to stay in one place. I feel so blessed, :thumbup: :thumbup:
