    I collect antique and vintage sewing machines. I have about 40 machines, but here are a few of my old girls. Most have names too .

    Mary Queen of Scotts


    Catherine The Great


    Angeline


    Alanna


    I have 4 of these little British Ideals-love the Art Deco design. They haven't told me their names yet, though.

    I don't know if this would be regarded as one but I am trying to collect artworks by a certain artists, ie Douglas Fieldew Pratt. So far I have 4 pencil drawings, 2 etchings, 2 watercolours, and 2 Oils... and he has hundreds of artwork that I know of so, I have a fair way to go before i make a dent in making a collection.

    This one is currently hanging on my bedroom wall.
