Judith, I two had well over 2 dozen vintage machines, at one time, I sold a few, and gave a few away..
Sadly neither my daughter nor my 2 granddaughters are interested in sewing.. and I have no female cousins that are interested either.. Alas, when I go to that big crafting room in the sky, I will have to hope all my machines will be rescued by happy homes...

Yesterday I finally finished another corner to corner. This one will need some fixing when I sew in the ends to make the image connect better. I can't wait for all of these to be finished.

So pretty, Krista! Your stitching is so nice and even. I love seeing such fine work. My Nanie always told me that if I was going to spend time working on a project that I had better do my absolute best work! You have definitely followed her rule!

Judith and Grace - I'd be happy to be adopted LOL! I only have 2 sewing machines and one serger. And one of the sewing machines and the serger are "on loan" from my mother in law since she hasn't used them in years. None of them are vintage.
Krista - I love seeing your Harry Potter squares. Can't wait to see them all put together!
Here's the santa malfunction I mentioned a while ago: I changed the pattern a bit - it had a white boarder all the way around it. In doing so I messed up the belt buckle and forgot to start the belt again. There were so many cut and tied pieces for the belt buckle that once I realized my mistake I wasn't going to go back and redo it!
