I do have 6 now, and my daughter has 2 for me that I haven't seen yet that someone gave to her....she did tell me they are old, so we'll see.....I promise to post pictures soon!

Ten, but that includes a tiny old toy machine. And one I bought to make a lamp out of but didn't have the heart to ruin it. And a family treadle machine.
Ones I use or hope to eventually: My good Viking embroidery machine, two featherweights (one my dh wants me to sell), a small babylock to take to classes when I need a machine that does more than straight stitching, my serger, a 301 that was given to me, and an old machine I lent to a young woman who wants to learn to sew.
I will probably remember more once I send this message.

A short time later I went to another estate sale looking for the blonde Singer sewing cabinet that was listed and, what a surprise, it had a 15-91 Singer inside, both items for $65. This got me to thinking, I wonder how many machines do my quilting friends have. I have a total of 11, One Universal, my first sewing machine that is nearly 40 years old, a Brother CS6000i, 2 Singer 201's, a Janome Mini Sew, A 1903 Singer 127, 2 Singer Featherweights. a Singer 15-91, a Singer 301A and a Singer 66 Treadle that was given to me by my MIL. My repairman says I have a nice collection.
