ok, all this talk of machines.. :mrgreen:

here's some of my oldies but goodies...
15-90 - my DH is using this to make his first quilt!

185J - found this in an antique store - the thing weighs a TON - you wouldn't think so because it's small (the follow up to a 99)

301 - my beige 301, I also have a black short bed.. I LOVE these machines - that's why I have two! I do all my piecing on the 301s. And they are FABULOUS for stippling/meandering.

The last one looks a lot like the one my mom had which my sister has now.

I love your machines. I would like to collect them but I'm afraid my dh would have a heart attack. My little quilting hobby is already costing him a small fortune. :roll:

The first one looks very similiar to the one my mother had for years and years, the one she taught me to sew on!

I think the old machines are beautiful. My MIL had a great looking one..maybe I'll just "snatch" it from my niece when she isn't looking...Think that would work?? :mrgreen:
