I find it very weird you own two sewing machines.

What? Having two sewing machines in the house is tremendously useful, I think. Or sometimes four. Though we only used three of them... ;)

I got rid of my sewing basket when I moved. I can't imagine having to need more than ONE sewing machine.

Technically I have three.

I inherited one from my maternal grandmother (the cast iron machine which is currently in the shop). I inherited one from my paternal grandmother (it is currently not working but hidden away inside the very nice wooden sewing *desk* it came in... I'll get it repaired at some point). But before I inherited either of these, my parents bought me my own sewing machine, which has since been traded in for an upgrade. So, I have three sewing machines, none of which I bought.

And when (hopefully many, many decades in the future) my mother passes on, either my sister or I will inherit her antique electrical treading machine, which is absolutely exquisite.

Yes, but one of your machines is an emboidery machine, so it's not like you have two of the same kind as I do. :p

I'm wondering. Given the short time frame, I'm wondering if this would be a good time for the bride to pay to send some of the dresses to a professional seamstress? I'm rather worried about you getting overwhelmed here.

Mmm, the work is actually easy enough... I'm just puzzled about why I keep breaking needles, as I'm sewing on sheer fabrics and I don't hear the needle hitting anything. *shrug*
