Sewing machine, embroidery machine, serger. LOL

When they act up I usually call them "stupid machine."

I have a Viking Diamond...and I named her Jewelia. I have 3 older Kenmores...so they are Kenny 1, 2 and 3. I have an oooold White treadle machine that I called Mrs. White. The sergers (I have 3) and one more Singer treadle I just inherited haven't been named...yet. Now I'll have to think about it. It's a large sewing family I have.

I do not name none living things like cars, machines, phones, shoes, but did name my dolls when I was a child.

yes i name my flowers to i trade lots and each piece /flower/tv/etc has a name like the miccrowave is called Mickie etc. I also count tiles and many things yep i am weird hugs:))

I have often thought about naming my machines but never came up with just the right name I guess. I'm open to suggestions.... Hugs, Susan

Really???

I own a couple Ellegante2's - I did call the 1st one Ellie for a bit - in my mind - but what do you do when you find you have twins?

Jan, have yur named yours?

My singer's name is "Paquita", named after a mexican singer that sings funny songs about hating men.... LOL, my brother's name is "baby" ******

I've yet to name any of my appliances/machines. I never really felt the need. Never could understand naming an inanimate object?????
Muffy :)

Hope..you hope all things you make on her will turn out great....Faith...you have faith in her ability to do great things....My g'son named my machine Ms Magic...because when we work on her together, we make magic!

I have named all my cars since they have "personalities" and some have been downright tempermental lol but I haven't really named my sewing machines. Although, like another Cutie, I do sometimes call one of them "stupid machine" my serger is my "expensive machine" and one gets called loving and nice names like "beauty" or "wonderful" or "amazing". One machine gets called names like "old" and "workhorse" but no regular given names.

In my sewing room is Lady Di and Big Brother Campden. Campden is the repair ladies son's name - very important! Gotta be nice to the kids ya know. and we want a BigBigBaby! LLDS!

My names usualy come from the songs that play in my head. My Singer embroidery machine's name is Pearl. From the song by Elke Brooks. "Pearl's a singer, she stands up when she plays the piano"..... I never sit in front of Pearl, usually just stand watching and checking, so it sorta seems right. My new sewing machine, also a singer is Lady Madonna, from the Beatles' lyrics and yes I do think money is heaven sent :) and I bought her with total disregard for once to the bills that needed paying. Seems an appropriate name for her. Hugs to you all and you babies, Christine, Johannesburg

My Designer 1 is Daisy (my favorite flower) and my Designer Diamond is, of course, Diamond Lil, or Lil for short. Still haven't named my HV 936 serger. They may be inanimate, but we do spend lots of time with them and talk to them and they talk back at times so it's only natural (to me anyway) that we should name them! Hugs. Nan W

I haven't named mine, just call them "my baby" and my serger. Might do so later.
I used to work with a lady that called any kind of equipment FRED (F. Rediculous Electronic Device) as machines didn't seem to like her, so she would just say "that stupid FRED - he's not cooperating!".

So far I didn't give it a name. My dishwasher's name is "James" and we have a'virtual dog' named "blacky" who always seems to replace things so we never can't find them where we thoughed we left them behind.

I call my embroidery stupid lemon
it is nothing but trouble had it in the shop in october and again a couple of weeks ago almost 400.00 dollars for fixing it.

My machines usually feel my "love" (when they are stitching fine), so no need to get personal with them. BUT, now let them act up, then their names come out in a split second, "Gosh Dang It", "Aw Poop", or "Oh Sh_t"!!! LOL (Sorry, Jan,just couldn't resist!)
Hugs,
