Welcome. You'll soon wonder how you aquired so many sewing machines, so much essential 'stuff', not to mention a stash!

@stevedb, ignore the siren call of the enablers.  That way leads to obessesion and eventual intervention.  :laughing:

Hi @stevedb welcome to TSP

Some people (like me) are hoarders and so acquire lots of machines, fabrics and other stuff.  Others are minimalist.

TSP is great for eneabling to you 'need' more, but if you are at all creative I belive that you need the materials to be creative with.  :fabric:  :sew:  :thread: 
Brenda.  My machines are: Corona, a 1953 Singer 201K-3, Caroline, a 1940 Singer 201K-3, Thirza, 1949 Singer 221K, Azilia, 1957 Singer 201K-MK2 and Vera, a Husqvarna 350 SewEasy about 20 years old. Also Bernina 1150 overlocker and Elna 444 Coverstitcher.

Hello @stevedb, a belated welcome from me too. A word of warning, you will become an addict and end up with several machines like most of us have  :laughing:

I don't know how I missed this!

A big welcome from me @stevedb , from another North Westerner!

Just grab a brew and a piece of cake, and jump right in!

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.
