My 1968 Bernina is called The Queen Beatrice, the others are Miriam
the Minimatic, and Baby B. The big walking-foot industrial is called
Hannibal. The treadles (which get used the most) never seem to get
names. As to the other dozen or so.. they don't have names yet..

and Barbie], more than just a pretty face =3D Gi Joe =3D Mr. Joe
Had an old Singer knockoff named Scout
The Brother I last bought from a neighbor is named Jeanne, after the
lady who sold it to me - it was her mother's
Ginger in CA

Tony, Rosie, Luna, Walter, Casper, etc]
