Re: Table top Stitch regulated long or mid arm machines



We don't own things they own us to a degree. That is how I was with
machines. I have let go of most of them that I am not attached
to. After a point you lose sight of those you really enjoy because
they are cluttered with a mass of many.

Judy Martin has a photo of her sewing room online:

She used to have one machine, a Featherweight. She now has the Juki
(TL-98 I think) She is a pro and she has that one machine. MAchines
are just tools. The operator is the artist.
The hunting is too fun though.

One of the things I did not mention is the Collector Syndrome. I used
to be afflicted with it when I bought and sold acoustic guitars. Can
you say 44 Guitars at one time? Most people would say, "You can only
play one guitar at a time". But, I would say. "Yes, but I have a lot
of time to play guitars and I wouldn't want to not play all of them".
Thankfully, that phase of my life is behind me, but I understand the
quest to have some interesting items that are related to your hobby,
passion, work, or whatever. Now, I am of the mind that I only want
the minimum number of things that will let me accomplish what I want
to do. That seems to work for me, but of course, your experiences may
vary. Therein lies the wonderful differences of the human condition.
Happy hunting.

John
