    Yes, I have 4 that I use all the time, a 5th that is actually my DGD's that I use occasionally. They are all Vikings, the Diamond, the SE, the Topaz 30, the D1 and my DGD's is a Viva. Then I have a treadle, a hand crank, my mother's old machine, my neighbor's machine her husband gave me when she died, a freebie from another neighbor, and a couple I just acquired. Plus I have 2 sergers and a blind hemmer.

    Darn, after seeing your stash, I need to find another name for mine! I have shelves lining 2 walls above the door frames in my dining room of my 1br apt, and I have made mini bolts for my fabric so I can see it. But Stash? More like Stashlet at the very least! Or at least a Stash-Start!

    I didn't show you the fleece section. The one on the left in the picture is mostly flannels; the one on the right is the larger pieces of quilting cottons; the fat quarters and 1/2 yd pieces are in the file drawers according to color and type, ie batiks, fall, Christmas, pastels, etc. It is my goal in the next year to greatly reduce the size of the stash, by sewing of course.

    Yes, I had a dream about it. It was in a storage bin on the other side of the basement by the furnace. That bin only held Christmas scraps.....till I put those strips and fat quarters in there. There were some others in there too. Don't ask me why I put them there.

    Yes, my last iron kept blowing fuses. I had heard Sharks were more electricity friendly (don't know if that is true). And one time I got my rebate check from BJ's wholesale club, so decided to treat myself to the Shark. It heats up fast, turns off if I forget to unplug it, and reheats fast when out of use for 10 minutes. Then after I got the new iron, my youngest son called and asked if I had an iron I didn't use. So guess where the old one went?!?!
