I like 11.   :)
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

I do 1.  Normally have a sweary conversation with it!
I have learnt by my mistakes: Sewing machines now are Bernina 720, Bernina 1008, Bernina 801 from 1981, Brother overlocker, ancient but works well

I don't do 7 and I don't really do 2, though I do have a pair of scissors in my big handbag (my purse is for money ;) )

I do name my sewing machines and hate to throw out little scraps. 
You can't scare me. I taught high school for 32 years.
