Do you name your sewing machine? I do! Sometimes I name them after the person I got them from, sometimes the place. I currently am sewing on "Chuckee"--I got him from a man named Chuck. I also have "LouAnn" and "Becka" and "Clara". There is a machine named "Red Cloud". I have a Red Eye treadle in my living room called "Topeka". "Tom Cruise" is downstairs.
Do I have a favorite? Not really, I tend to rotate them around to be used. "LouAnn" is a speed demon, "Chuckee" is dependable. "Becka" is a sentimental favorite, "Red Cloud" gets petted as I wonder what all she's sewn. All these machines are older than I am. I wonder where they've been in their, their owners. Don't you wish they could talk??

yes! I have Baby Brother~who lives in the corner and her little sister, Bella~who is a travel machine. and let's not forget Valerie~the Gammill. :)
Absolutely they all deserve a name!! I think that any piece of technology that a person uses as much as we use out machines should have a name!
I had Bubba the Brother and when he got the boot, I got JJ the Janome. Her name is short for Jill's Janome and yes, she is female. A lot less tempermental than Bubba, too! lol
I named my longarm after my Granddad, Willie. I always look forward to playing with Willie!
Only since meeting you did Kenny the Kenmore get his name. I dunno about the Ol Girl he sits on though
So why is Tom Cruise kept in the basement?
Never mind. I think I know.
My sewing machines are named "Janome" ... LOLOL My HQ is Missy!
